A Brazilian outlet reports Neymar will miss the Copa America Centenario, and the tournament's official website has removed the Barca star from marketing materials.
Fans hoping to see one of the biggest soccer stars in the Americas in the United States this summer might not get their wish. According to a report in Brazilian outlet Globo, Barcelona will send the Brazilian football association (CBF) a letter releasing Neymar to play the Olympics but not the Copa America Centenario.
Brazil manager Dunga had hoped to have the star attacker available for both June's Copa America and the Olympics in August, which Brazil will contest on its home soil.
