The recent Neymar Injury Leak about the star’s left knee meniscus tear sparked frustration from his father, who called it a “breach of medical confidentiality,” according to ge.
He was present at CT Rei Pelé on Wednesday (26) to monitor Neymar’s physical test during Santos’ training. Sources say he supports Neymar playing despite the pain, especially for Friday’s (28) crucial match against Sport at Vila Belmiro.
Neymar’s injury can cause pain and instability, but he can still run, leaving the door open for him to play. However, participating could worsen the condition.
Neymar Injury Leak Backstage Reaction
The Neymar Injury Leak surfaced just before a Pelé Museum event on Tuesday (25), when NR Sports finalized the purchase of the King’s brand.
At the event, Neymar’s father showed visible irritation when asked about the injury, venting over the phone and accusing Santos of breaking confidentiality.
No official decision has been made about Neymar playing. Santos shared only a video of him training with knee protection. The final decision is expected after Thursday’s last training session.

Tense Relationship
The Neymar Injury Leak adds to existing tensions between Neymar’s father and Santos. Previously, he had reacted strongly after reports of Neymar’s behavior in a Flamengo match, claiming his son was being exposed.
The father’s relationship with Santos president Marcelo Teixeira is strained, amid doubts about Neymar’s fitness and ongoing contract renewal negotiations.
Contract Renewal
Neymar’s contract runs until December 31. A renewal is possible but complicated by financial issues. Santos reportedly owes R$ 85 million to Neymar’s parents’ company for image rights, plus his monthly wage of R$ 4.5 million adds to the burden.
So far, Neymar has played 17 of 35 Brasileirão matches, with the Neymar Injury Leak drawing extra attention to his availability.
