Neymar to undergo season-ending surgery on right ankle
Paris Saint-Germain says Brazilian soccer player Neymar will undergo season-ending surgery on his damaged right ankle and will be out for up to four monthsMARCH 6, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Out for season Neymar is set to undergo a ligament repair surgery on his right ankle which will rule him out for 3-4 months, effectively ending his season.
Impact Neymar has suffered a litany of ankle injuries throughout the years, and he often incurs them in early spring right when crunch time begins in the Champions League. Following his latest sprain a few weeks ago on Feb. 19, he has decided to undergo an operation to repair the ligaments in his ankle in an effort to try to prevent future injuries like this, but he will be sidelined until at least June while he recovers. The UCL Final this season is on June 10 so there's a possibility he could potentially recover for that game specifically, but of course PSG would have to make it all the way to the final for that to be a possibility.
