Neymar’s Surprise Message
Paraguayan swimmer Luana Alonso recently shared an unexpected revelation. Despite reports that she was kicked out of the Paris Olympic 2024 Match village, Alonso disclosed that Brazilian football star Neymar Junior sent her a private message on Instagram. The 20-year-old swimmer mentioned this during an interview on the Paraguayan radio show Aire de Todos. She noted that Neymar is a big fan but did not provide further details about their interaction. “He sent me a DM. That’s all I can say. It was left on the request form. I cannot tell this here,” Alonso said, as quoted by Fox Sports Mexico.
Alleged Expulsion Controversy
Alonso’s comments came after reports claimed she was removed from the Olympic 2024 Match village for allegedly creating an “inappropriate atmosphere.” However, Alonso has denied these claims. She insisted she was never expelled and urged people to “stop spreading false information.” According to her, the rumors about her removal are unfounded.
Neymar’s Injury and Recovery
Meanwhile, Neymar is facing a difficult period as he recovers from a severe knee injury. The Brazilian footballer is expected to miss the start of the Saudi Pro League season. Al Hilal’s coach, Jorge Jesus, confirmed on Tuesday that Neymar will be sidelined for some time. “All I know now is that the time given to Neymar to recover from similar injuries is approximately 10 to 11 months,” said Jesus.
Neymar suffered the injury in October and has missed much of the current season. Despite his absence, Al Hilal secured the league title for a record-extending 19th time earlier this month. The Saudi league traditionally starts in August, and Neymar will also miss next month’s Copa America.
Neymar’s Recent Challenges
The 32-year-old forward underwent surgery in Brazil last November to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus damage. He sustained the injury during a World Cup qualifier against Uruguay, leading to his removal from the field in tears.
Neymar joined Al Hilal in 2023, making headlines as one of the latest high-profile players to sign with the big-spending Saudi Pro League. He commands a salary of 100 million euros per season in Saudi Arabia, while Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) received 100 million euros from the deal.
Conclusion
In summary, Luana Alonso’s revelation about Neymar’s private message adds an interesting twist to her ongoing controversy. As she denies any wrongdoing regarding her alleged expulsion, Neymar continues to focus on his recovery from a serious knee injury. The football world will keep an eye on both stories as they develop. Stay updated with the Olympic 2024 Match from IPL365.
