ToggleThe legendary former Brazilian forward issued a public apology to Neymar on social media after he suggested that the Santos star has a bad relationship with current CBF president Ednaldo Rodrigues. He also speculated that Neymar blamed the CBF chief for his ACL injury in 2023. Speaking on the Charla podcast, Ronaldo said: "As far as I know, Neymar doesn't get along with Ednaldo. He accuses Ednaldo of having injured his cruciate ligament in Cuiaba because of the unevenness of the pitch. That's what I heard, I don't know if it's true. But it's possible."

On Monday, Ronaldo shared his apology to Neymar on as he wrote: "I would like to apologize to @neymarjr for having spoken about his relationship with the president of the CBF. As a former player, I know how badly told stories can harm us. I also know how much his talent can make a difference in the Brazilian National Team. That's why I support him!"
The ACL injury in 2023 completely disrupted Neymar's career as he remained out of action for more than a year. He then momentarily returned to action for Al-Hilal in October last year, only to suffer a fresh knock. The former Barcelona star eventually terminated his Al-Hilal contract mutually and moved back to his boyhood club, Santos, in a bid to rebuild his faltering career.
