Neymar trains at Las Vegas Raiders facilities

Neymar Jr.star of the Brazilian soccer team, who is recovering from a knee injury, trained this Thursday at the facilities of Las Vegas Raiders, NFL team. “I am very happy to train here, thank you very much for opening the door to me. This place is incredible, something I had never seen in my life, so I really thank you very much for the space,” said the player through the network of Raiders.

Neymar is recovering from the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee that he suffered last year, an injury that kept him out of his team at the Copa América played in the United States and where he was accompanied, from the standing , in his debut match.

In the video published by the Raiders, Neymar is seen wearing a black t-shirt and cap with a silver and black NFL team shield. The former star of Brazilian Santos, FC Barcelona and French PSG also shared some of his achievements on his Instagram account. In the photos you can see him jumping over some hurdles and doing some speed racing at an indoor Raiders facility.

In another photo, Neymar is next to Jack Jones, a 26-year-old cornerback from Las Vegas, who gave him a team jersey with his signature and the number 18 he wears. Defensive end Maxx Crosby, a star of the franchise led by coach Antonio Pierce, also boasted on his social networks the visit of the ’10’ of the ‘canarinha’ in an image where they are together inside the Raiders locker room.

Neymar took advantage of the end of the video to wish Las Vegas luck in the 2024 campaign “I hope next season they will be champions,” said the Saudi Al-Hilal player. Although the Brazilian star was not included in the squad for this Copa América, a few days ago he took the time to visit his teammates before the match they played against Costa Rica on Monday, which ended in a goalless draw.
