Brazil forward Neymar will undergo an MRI on his right calf to help determine his fitness for the World Cup.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti provided the update about Brazil's all-time leading scorer at a press conference on Friday.
The MRI will be on Monday. Brazil play its Group C opener against Morocco on Jun 13 in East Rutherford, NJ.
"I think his situation is quite clear," Ancelotti said, per ESPN. "He's doing a great job on his own. After the weekend, he'll have an MRI scan and then, if everything goes well, he can train with the squad next week."
