AFP, Paris :
An almost fit again Neymar will fly from Rio to Paris on Friday some 40 days ahead of the World Cup finals in Russia, French daily L’Equipe has reported.
While his return is too late to have any impact for his club, Brazil fans are desperate for their iconic star to lead the team out in Russia.
The 26-year-old Paris Saint-Germain forward-at 220m euros (263m US dollars) the most expensive player in history-broke a bone in his right foot on February 26 playing for PSG and has been in a race for fitness since undergoing surgery in Brazil a week later.
