"Paris Saint-Germain" coach Unai Emery revealed that Neymar could return to the field before the end of the club season.
The world's most expensive football player broke his foot in a match against "Marseille" in February, and the seriousness of the injury raised doubts about his chances of playing in the World Cup.
However, the 25-year-old Brazilian's rehabilitation is progressing smoothly, and he is close to starting training again.
"According to the latest tests, Neymar is close to returning to training," Emery said at a press conference.
"He has had good medical tests and I am sure that when he returns here, he will want to play matches."
"Maybe he will have time to play with us even before the end of this season. We are working on that."
Before getting injured, Neymar had scored 29 goals and made 19 assists in over 30 matches.
