He chose his moment well.
This Friday, the day after the defeat (1-0) of his teammates in Lens on behalf of the second day of Ligue 1, Neymar made his return to PSG training.

The day after Marcin Bulka's ball, who was acting in the cage, the resumption of the Costa Rican may allow Paris to hope to present a more competitive profile on Sunday night at the Parc des Princes.
Unless Thomas Tuchel opts for caution.
“We will make a point with the concerned and the doctors, warned the German coach in Lens.
