Neymar arrives late to the Brazilian camp due to flying

Neymar and Marquinhos arrived late today, Monday, for Brazil's first training session in Turin, in preparation for the FIFA World Cup, due to problems with their trip from Paris to the Italian city, where the team is holding a camp for five days, before traveling to Doha.

Today, Monday, all 26 players were scheduled to attend one of the training grounds in Juventus, but Neymar and Marquinhos, the Paris Saint-Germain duo, were delayed due to a mechanical failure in the plane.

The duo arrived in the afternoon as coach Tite was conducting light training with 14 players who had not played for their clubs earlier this week.

Neymar and Marquinhos joined other players in the gymnasium before the end of the training session.

According to the Brazilian technical staff, the plan is to spend the first two days in the Turin camp to assess the physical condition of the national team players.

The team aims to hold its first full training session on the field on Wednesday.


Brazil will open its World Cup matches against Serbia on November 24, before playing against Switzerland and Cameroon in Group G.
