Neymar’s major injury that kept him out for a long spell happened on October 17, 2023 , when he tore the ACL and meniscus in his left knee during Brazil’s World Cup qualifier against Uruguay.

He has had several earlier injuries too, including:

  • February 2018 : broken metatarsal.
  • January 2019 : another metatarsal fracture.
  • October 2023 : the serious knee injury that led to surgery and a long recovery.

If you meant a different Neymar injury, the exact date depends on which one you’re asking about, since he’s had multiple across his career.
