Neymar involved in accident ahead of Barca match

The Brazilian attacker was on the way to the training ground to join up with his team-mates when he dented his sportscar
Barcelona forward Neymar has been involved in a traffic accident ahead of his side's La Liga game with Real Sociedad.

The 24-year-old was travelling towards Ciutat Esportiva to meet up with his teammates, but crashed his Ferrari 458 Spider en route.

Spanish channel TV3 and Marrathon confirmed that Neymar did not suffer any serious injuries in the incident, and should be fit to feature against Sociedad on Sunday evening.

The crash occured when Neymar went to exit the highway, leaving the side of his car dented, but Neymar was unscathed and continued onwards to meet the rest of the squad and travel to San Sebastian.

The collision was bad enough to send the Brazilian's car spinning in the opposite direction and Pepe Costa, one of the kit men at the club, waited with the car until it could be removed by crane.

Neymar bought the £200,000 Ferrari in October 2015.

Barca happy to risk Neymar at Anoeta
The Brazil international has been in excellent form this season, scoring four goals in 10 league games for Luis Enrique's side, as well as equalling the Champions League assists record of seven.

Barcelona can close the gap on league leaders Real Madrid to four points with victory on Sunday evening.
