The Ligue 1 champions, Paris Saint Germain would be without their ace for another four weeks after he sustained a hamstring injury in a friendly match against Nigeria on October 13. An MRI scan has confirmed the injury which will make him miss action for about one month.
Neymar was forced off after just 12 minutes of Brazil's 1-1 friendly draw with Nigeria in Singapore, and replaced by Bayern Munich's Phillipe Coutinho.
The star man who had been embroiled in an attempted controversial move to Barcelona had just recently returned to action for his club side but he scored goals that pushed up PSG to the top of the table.
