• The former Barcelona star and the rest of his teammates are aiming to win their sixth World Cup in Qatar

Neymar Junior has joined the rest of his Brazil teammates in Italy as the 2002 World champions begin preparations for the World Cup.

The 30-year-old and his Paris Saint-Germain teammate Marquinhos arrived late for the first day on Monday due to problems with their flight from Paris to Turin.

The 26-man squad will hold a five-day camp at the Juventus training facility before flying to Doha.

Coach Tite took 14 players, who did not play for their clubs over the weekend, through light drills. Neymar and Marquinhos joined the other 12 players in the gym at the end of the session.

Neymar will be hoping to lead the Selecao to their sixth World Cup title in the Middle East, having already won the tournament five times.

The South American giants are competing in Group G at the 2022 World Cup against Cameroon, Serbia and Switzerland respectively.

As reported by Sportskeeda, Neymar was recently asked how many goals he expected to score during the World Cup, to which he replied, 'at least 5.’

Neymar's previous World Cup goals

In 2018, Neymar only managed to score two goals as Brazil were dumped out in the tournament's quarter-final stage. He also notched up one assist.

At the 2014 World Cup, he scored four goals and grabbed one assist before he was injured in the quarter final. A Neymar-less Brazil was then hammered 7-1 in the now infamous semi-final against Germany.
