Will Neymar Jr Play in Al-Orobah vs Al-Hilal Match in Saudi Pro League 2024-25?
The 32-year-old continues his recovery from injury and is unlikely to be involved in the Al-Orobah vs Al-Hilal clash. Earlier in 2024, Neymar had made his return from an ACL tear after a year but unfortunately sustained a hamstring injury in just his second game on return and had to be subbed off. The Brazilian however featured in a mid-season friendly against Al-Fayha and scored a goal as well. Neymar also shared pictures of him training in the gym prior to the match and it will be interesting to see if he has an involvement in the match.
However, not just Neymar but Al-Hilal will miss Aleksandr Mitrovic. Salem Al-Dawsari had also sustained a muscle injury and will be interesting to see if he makes it to the Al-Hilal matchday squad against Al-Orobah.
