Neymar has announced that he and his partner Bruna Biancardi are expecting their third child together. The Brazilian forward shared the joyful news through a family gender reveal celebration, where the couple discovered they will soon welcome another daughter. The moment sparked a playful remark from the Santos star, who is currently in the midst of recovering from an injury.

The announcement came during the World Cup, adding a personal highlight to Neymar’s year. In the gender reveal video, the couple were joined by their daughters Mavie and Mel, as well as Neymar’s eldest son, Davi Lucca, as they celebrated the upcoming addition to their family.

The reveal confirmed that another baby girl is on the way, bringing a joyful distraction for Neymar as he continues his rehabilitation during the early stages of the 2026 World Cup. The news has been warmly received by fans, offering a positive update amid the Brazil star’s recovery period.

The new arrival will make Neymar a father of five. His children—Davi Lucca, Helena, Mavie, Mel, and now a third child with Biancardi—come from three different relationships. Reacting with humour after learning the baby’s gender, the former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain forward quipped, “I’m going to form a band, and from today, it’s going to be the Spice Girls.”

While the family news has brought happiness off the pitch, Neymar’s on-field situation with the Brazilian national team remains uncertain. The forward missed Brazil’s 1-1 draw with Morocco in their opening Group C match as he continues to recover from a grade two calf injury sustained while playing for Santos.

Brazil’s medical team are adopting a careful approach to his rehabilitation, considering his long history of calf and ankle issues. The 34-year-old has not taken part in a competitive fixture since mid-May, and his recovery is being managed step by step. Despite being sidelined, Neymar’s presence around the squad remains influential, with the coaching staff viewing him as a key figure in guiding the younger players through the tournament.

Brazil remain optimistic that Neymar will be able to resume training soon and regain fitness before the knockout stages. The coaching staff are determined not to rush his return, focusing instead on ensuring he is fully ready for the latter stages of the competition. The Selecao are preparing to face Haiti on June 20, though Neymar is expected to miss that fixture as his recovery continues.

As Brazil progress through the World Cup, fans are eager to see how far the team can go—and whether Neymar will make his much-anticipated return to the pitch in time to make an impact.
