Neymar has faced many injuries in his career. The amount of injuries he has faced can weaken any soccer player’s physical as well as mental strength. The club report on his injury also looks devastating. However, a doctor from Ripoll and Prado Medical Group, FIFA Medical Center of Excellence has positive news to share with the Brazilian star. Dr. Cesar Quesada states that ACL injuries can be managed easily.

In an interview with Marca, Quesada explained Ney’s injury as he said, “This is a 31-year-old footballer, still with quite a future ahead of him. Today the recovery from an ACL injury is well standardized and although the times are long, about eight months, it is important to know that the return to the playing field is perfectly possible in very good conditions”.

The assurance from the medical practitioner is sure to give a boost to Ney and Al Hilal supporters. Being a dribbler has its pros and cons, and one con that every dribbler faces is injuries, from making the ball turn and the amount of tackles that they receive, all can lead to bigger problems in the future. His recurring injury issues also stem from the reason that he has been active in the game for a long time.
