Neymar has been selected for Brazil's 2026 World Cup squad, his fourth appearance at the tournament. The Santos forward revealed he cried for several hours upon learning of his inclusion after a lengthy injury absence.
Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti named the 34-year-old in his final squad despite the forward missing national team duty since an ACL injury in October 2023. Neymar shared a video of the moment he received the call, embracing his physiotherapist and fitness coach who supported his recovery at Santos.
