Neymar can return when he wishes in France, like the other players who went abroad, there will be no quarantine.
Neymar is not the only footballer to have chosen to spend his confinement far from France, the Brazilian star of Paris Saint-Germain having set course for his country before the President of the Republic decides on this radical measure against the coronavirus epidemic. But the case of the Seleçao and PSG striker is obviously the one that attracts the most attention, the closure of the European borders having first raised fears of an impossible return of the players who left for South America. And there are many of them in the Parisian workforce, since Neymar and Thiago Silva have left for Brazil, Edinson Cavani has set sail for Uruguay, while Keylor Navas has chartered a private flight to return to Costa Rica. But we quickly learned that the administrative situation of all players allowed a return to France without having to wait for the borders to reopen.
A big relief even if another uncertainty hovered, namely the possible quarantine of Neymar and his teammates as soon as they set foot in France, just to not return with the coronavirus. But on Monday, Agence France Presse received a clear answer from the Ministry of the Interior. ” There is no problem to return to the territory, whatever the nationality and the provenance and there is no compulsory quarantine at this stage “, Said the authorities. In other words, on a practical level, Neymar can leave this Monday from Brazil and find the Camp des Loges the next day, once he has passed a test, like all the players and staff of Paris Saint-Germain. Another worry less, although it will still be necessary to wait before seeing Thomas Tuchel and his players in training.
