Neymar: 'Foot injury up to God'

"Your will be done, God," the forward wrote, next to a photo of one of his tatoos on which it is written on his thigh: "1% luck, 99% faith." Neymar is a known devout evangelical Christian.

His club, Paris Saint Germain, have said the injury sustained in Wednesday's French Cup match against Strasbourg was to his fifth metatarsal, which was already fractured last season, with the extent of the problem not yet known. Neymar added no details on his social media post, and tests in the coming days will reveal how serious it is.

The recurrence comes three weeks before PSG play Manchester United in the Champions League, and is also a worry for the Selecao as Brazil host the Copa America between June 14 and July 7.
