Now the former Barcelona star is doing individual training work at the Saudi Pro League side, his detractors are once again lambasting the Brazilian.

WHAT THE FANS ARE SAYING

Former Paris Saint-Germain man Neymar, who left the Ligue 1 outfit for Al-Hilal last summer in a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/al-hilal-confirm-90m-signing-neymar-psg/blt587c20f8af583167" target="_blank">£77.2million ($98.3m) move,</a> is in a race against time to play some part in the Saudi Pro League season - with ACL ruptures or tears typically taking eight to 10 months to recover from. The campaign ends in late May and there is no guarantee the ex-Barcelona ace will kick a ball again this term.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Neymar, who played just five times and scored one goal for Al-Hilal before his injury, will continue to step up his rehab in the coming weeks and months. Meanwhile, his table-topping side host Al-Raed on Sunday afternoon.
