Neymar doesn't care about his lack of pre-season with Barcelona. He wants to play with La Liga's champion as soon as possible.
The Brazilian wingman arrived today to El Prat airport in Barcelona, voicing his desire to play with the team in the upcoming match against Alavés this Saturday.
"I'm really happy to be back. I can already see myself playing next Saturday with the team," Neymar said.
The former Santos player wasn't available for Barcelona for the past 106 days. After taking some time off, the Brazilian ace led A Canarinha to their first ever Gold medal in Olympic football, while adding a couple more wins for Brazil during the CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifiers under new coach Tite.
Despite Neymar's wishes, coach Luis Enrique may decide to keep him away from the pitch,considering the Brazilian didn't work out with the team during the summer. However, Messi's injury could force him to give Neymar a starting nod against the recently-promoted side.
