Five-time World champions Brazil have been boosted with the news that star player Neymar has returned to training with the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia just some weeks away.

Neymar sustained a season-ending injury while playing for Paris Saint Germain (PSG) in a cup game with Le Classique rivals Olympique Marseille in March thus making him a doubt for this summer’s World Cup but he has recovered well from the injury and could still feature for his capital club before the end of the season.

The former Barcelona forward is expected to lead his country’s assault for a 6th title when hostilities begin in Russia on June 14.
