The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) expects "Santos" striker Neymar to fully recover by June 12.
Idman.Biz reports this with reference to ESPN.
It was previously reported that the player is in the rehabilitation phase after a calf injury.
According to the source, if Neymar recovers before Brazil's first group stage match (June 14), he will remain in the team. Otherwise, the risk of excluding the 34-year-old striker from the national team increases.
Currently, CBF does not want to exclude Neymar. The player will follow the treatment protocol in order to recover in time before the start of the World Championship.
