Brazilian superstar Neymar Jr. was finally unveiled as a new Al Hilal player in a ceremony reserved for all signings. The former Barcelona man had a hilarious moment as his team-mates bathed him in bottled water. Neymar was covering his face and trying to escape. In his recent Instagram story, the newly signed Al Hilal player was seen with an oxygen mask.

Due to this post, many fans started wondering whether he will be available for the weekend clash against Karim Benzema's Al Ittihad. Al Ittihad has won all of their four opening games in the Saudi Pro League. It means that it will be tough for Al Hilal whether Neymar starts the match or not.

Al Ittihad have been the best team in Saudi Arabia. Under the management of Nuno Espirito Santo, they are yet to draw a game. The good news for Al Hilal fans is that Neymar is back in training. The former Paris Saint Germain (PSG) talisman appeared to be in high spirits in the training camp and didn't complain about his injured thigh. He has reportedly already informed the Al Hilal management about his availability.

Neymar was reportedly ready to play against Al Ettifaq, but manager Jorge Jesus refused to take the risk and decided to rest him. The Brazilian attacker has informed the Al Hilal management that he is ready to play as he has recovered from his thigh injury. He has also expressed his desire to be available for Brazil's qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup.
