  • SOUNDBITE: (Portuguese) Fabio Mahseredjian, Brazilian team physiotherapist:

    (on Neymar)

    "He has been improving on a daily basis. Probably he will be joining the other players at practice very soon, to help his physical improvement. What condition will he arrive in at the 17th (June, Brazil's debut against Switzerland)? We don't know yet. Why? Because his body is changing day by day. Our expectations are positive and high. And we are working with the positive expectations."

    SOUNDBITE: (Portuguese) Fabio Mahseredjian, Brazilian team physiotherapist:

    (on Neymar)

    "These weeks of training here and - especially - in London, as he will be practicing with everybody using the ball, 11 against 11, smaller pitch size among other things, this will allow him to help us try to speed the process of readapting, so he can gain as quickly as possible, a game rhythm. Of course, a match is different from a training session. But we have two friendly matches and our expectations are that he will play them. I don't know how much time he would be playing, but we still hope he can play at the friendly matches."
