Neymar Jr posted on his Instagram story ‘strength and faith’, as he reacted to Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus and Manchester United-owned, Alex Telles, being ruled out of the Qatar World Cup through injury.
The PSG superstar himself is in a race against time to recover from an ankle injury he suffered during Brazil’s opening group game win against Serbia.
But whilst he has a chance to feature again for Tite’s side, it’s the end of the tournament for Jesus and Telles, with the duo sustaining knee injuries.
They both underwent MRI scans, and are still in Doha, but it remains to be seen if they will return back to their domestic clubs, as reported by BBC Sport.
Nonetheless, added with an image of the Arsenal and Manchester United duo, Neymar wrote the following message on his IG story, in response to their bad news.
“Strength and faith,” wrote Neymar Jr. “We will always be together.”
BIGGER BLOW FOR ARSENAL
This was the last thing Arsenal fans wanted when a number of their key players headed out to Qatar and now it’s become a reality.
Everything was going so well for Mikel Arteta and Co.
But now many will start to worry about what will happen next because they may have to act in the January transfer window.
Luckily enough, it’s around the corner, but it’s still not an ideal situation and the supporters will be hoping Jesus is back sooner rather than later.
