Brazil international and Paris Saint-Germain star striker Neymar might have to cut his season short once again. After missing the second part of the 2017-18 season due to surgery on his right foot, the 26-year-old might be forced to do the same in 2018-19 according to sources close to Ligue 1 powerhouse.

Neymar injured his right foot in last week’s Coupe de France round of 32 match against Strasbourg, leaving the pitch in tears. The reports say that he fractured the same fifth metatarsal in his right foot like the last season, and that he might need another surgery to fix the issue. If this ends up to be the case, the Brazilian will most likely have to end his season prematurely.

Sources say that Neymar and PSG are currently debating whether the surgery is the only option, with both sides remaining optimistic that another solution might come up in the coming days. The best case scenario would be that the player reacts positively to treatment in which case he could return at some point in April.

Before the injury, Neymar was once again the Paris Saint-Germain’s best player, managing to score 13 goals in 13 matches alongside six assists in Ligue 1. He also added five goals in Championship League and one goal in French Cup.

Brazilian forward Neymar, who plays for France’s powerhouse Paris Saint-Germain and is one of the biggest soccer stars at the moment, recently injured his right foot in his team’s win over Marseille. Although first information said that it was just a sprain, it turns out the problem might be a lot bigger.

Neymar arrived in Brazil on Thursday for an operation on his right foot and the first information from Brazilian doctors is worrying. According to Dr. Rodrigo Lasmar, Neymar might not return to pitch until June, merely two weeks before the World Cup on which Neymar helmed Brazil should have been one of the favorites.

“Neymar has suffered a fracture to his fifth metatarsal.” – Lasmar told reporters. “It is a significant fracture to the bone in his foot. There are several types of fractures. For a fracture of this type, many times it is unnoticed and it ends up being much bigger, as has happened to Neymar, there is no doubt. The best and only indication is surgery, because, with a more conservative treatment, there is a great chance that there would be another fracture within a short period of time. And we cannot run that risk to the athlete.“

“The recovery time is between two and a half and three months,” – he added. “Every player is different. The intention is to monitor how the situation is and have regular control of the recovery.“

The nature of Neymar’s injury is a major blow for Paris Saint-Germain. The team broke the transfer fee records, paying $222 million in the summer to get Neymar from Barcelona. Although PSG is dominating over France’s La Liga for some time now, they are still short of a Champions League trophy, which they hoped to get with Neymar. In this season’s Round of 16 of the competition, the team already has a loss against Real Madrid and it is hard to believe they can make up for it in the rematch without their biggest star.
