Tite confirms: Neymar has recovered

The number 10 has missed the last two games due to injury

There has been good news for Brazil and their fans as Neymar has recovered from a knee injury and is expected to be ready for the squad in Brazil’s quarter-final match against South Korea on Monday.

The 30-year-old missed the two group games due to a knee injury in the opening game against Serbia. However, he has returned to training with his team-mates, with manager Tite confirming he is fit to play.

“He trained this evening, if he trains well, he will play,” said Tite.

“He was treated with a specific training program. I don’t want to come here in front of you and give information that is not true.”

“During my career I have always had credibility. He has trained, he will train and if he is good he will play. I won’t say anything else about the other 10 players.

Gabriel Jessu is out of the World Cup because he was injured during Brazil’s loss against Cameroon.

Reports in South America say that the Arsenal player was injured before the match started, but Tite has denied these reports.

“I don’t like to hear lies – these are evil lies,” said Tite.

“They are made by people who want to do bad things to other people. At no point do we play to win by putting players at risk.

My message to these liars is: stop fake news. Arsenal have a great medical department – we have a good medical department. We have ethics. We are sorry for Gabriel, but this never happened.”
