WORLD CUP rivals beware – Neymar is walking again without crutches.
The Paris Saint-Germain and Brazil star has been injured since February when he broke a bone in his foot during a Ligue 1 clash against Marseilles.
And Neymar posted a video on his Instagram stories without walking sticks but still wearing a protective boot.
PSG boss Unai Emery recently said he does not know when the 26-year-old will return to fitness.
But the latest speculation suggests he will not be back on the pitch until after the club season finishes on May 17.
Speaking after the Coupe de France win over Caen, Emery said: “It all depends how he feels there.

All the while there has been speculation Neymar could return to Spain… with Barcelona’s rivals Real Madrid.
It was revealed this week that he does NOT have a release clause in his contract, as they are illegal in France, fuelling speculation over a £263million deal.
Neymar was also spotted out with his girlfriend Bruna for a spot of shopping last week, but even then he was still sporting a crutch.
