Neymar photographed with NEW look ahead of FIFA World Cup 2026

The forward is currently recovering from an injury.

Neymar’s arrival at the FIFA World Cup 2026 has lit up the mood of many Brazilians. They were desperate for the forward to be named in the Selecao World Cup squad.

Since 2023, Neymar has not participated in any Brazil’s game. It was due to recurring injuries that affected his chances of playing for the national team. Moreover, as the 2026 World Cup approached, it appeared that the former PSG star would not make the World Cup squad.

But the Santos forward proved his fitness. Carlo Ancelotti decided to call up the highest goalscorer of the national team.

Despite being called up to the squad, the 34-year-old has already suffered a setback. The former FC Barcelona star is currently nursing an injury that is likely to rule him out for Brazil’s opening World Cup game.

However, Neymar is hoping to reach his full fitness before the opening game. He is desperate to return to action for the national side since 2023.

Neymar was seen with a new look during training

Until then, he will continue his recovery process. Additionally, Neymar has been photographed with a new look during his gym routine at the training centre.

It appears the player has gone back to his 2014 World Cup look. Back then, he was one of the players to watch out for and made his World Cup debut.

His performance in the 2014 tournament saw him single-handedly guide the Selecao to the semi-final. However, the forward missed the semi-final due to a serious injury.

With that hairstyle, fans will be expecting to see the player emulate a similar performance in the 2026 World Cup as Brazil hopes to lift their sixth title this year.
