This subject generated a lot of discussion when the list of Brazilian players who would play in the national team was released, I remember that the Al Hilal coach said in the interview that he could not understand how it was possible that Neymar was being called up to play in the Brazilian national team while that he underwent medical examinations at Al Hilal and said that he was injured and that he needed to recover before he could return to play, for this reason the Al Hilal coach recommended that Neymar not play until he improves, but strangely we are seeing Neymar playing since the beginning of games in the brazilian national team.
I've not been following the Saudi Arabian league for sometime but if Neymar lied that he was injured so that he won't play for Al Hilal, later traveled and represented his national team, then that's very bad and unprofessional. Come to think of it, is it the position of Neymar to tell his new club that he's injured or Al Hilal medical team to run a thorough test on him to ascertain the injury? This doesn't really make sense because it's the club's medical team's responsibility to do so and not the other way round. From the look of things we might not be getting the correct information about the Neymar injury story.
With the kind of welcome package Neymar got, the apartment, the exotic cars and gifts, also coupled with the fact that he is playing in a developing league where he may not really sweat to play much, should he decide to when available. He is a professional and has his manager and others to look out for him.
To relocate is not an easy to thing, it may take much more sacrifice inorder to do so, but, let's just agree he wants to really rest.
It's quite reasonable to assume that the next world cup might be a target and to stay fit and injury free till then, with a consistent record and form is the supposed mandate.
