Neymar diagnosed with mumps

In an interview with RAC1’s “Primer Toc”, Monchi spoke about their upcoming match against La Liga rivals Barcelona, and jokingly hoped that their two best players, Messi and Neymar, are still trying to get in form following their extended holidays, giving the Andalusians a bit of an advantage.

However, the report from Spain says that if Man United want Pedro to be available against Club Brugge on August 18th, they must deal the transfer within 48 hours.

“Therefore, the Brazilian striker will miss the European Super Cup final on Tuesday in Tbilisi, Georgia against Sevilla and also the Spanish Super Cup final which sees Luis Enrique’s team take on Athletic Club over two legs on August 14 and 17″, a statement from the club said on Sunday.

There’s no specific treatment for mumps, a contagious viral disease.

Furthermore, the fact that Neymar has been vaccinated significantly reduces any possibility of serious complications, which can include meningitis and pancreatitis.

The untimely domino effect of Neymar’s illness on Pedro’s situation is unwelcome for Louis van Gaal, who is desperate for some added creativity and goal threat at Old Trafford.
