RIO DE JANEIRO: Video footage of Brazil football maverick Neymar screaming out in pain during his physio treatment is circulating across the internet. This also casts a shadow of apprehension about the star footballers' upcoming schedules. The player is undergoing treatment after getting injured during the Latin American World Cup qualifier against Uruguay.

According to chiropractors and experts within the Brazil Squad, Neymar won’t be making a comeback to the field until August of next year. The star will certainly miss next year's Copa America tournament in the United States as the injury will take time to heal. Brazil has been in a title drought for some time, losing to arch-rivals Argentina in the last Copa final at their holy ground, the Maracana.

Brazil was out of the World Cup in Qatar after losing to Croatia in the quarterfinals. Neymar’s serious injury scare will further annihilate the team's title chances in next year’s Copa. The video shows Neymar writhing in pain and screaming while being treated for a leg injury. Three people are taking care of the Brazilian superstar.

Neymar, a connoisseur in the sports field has been at the receiving end of injuries for quite a long. The 31-year-old wizard has recently made a switch to a Saudi club after ending his Paris reign.
