Neymar launches signature £229 Mercurial Vapor 360 boots

Neymar took to social media to launch his new signature Mercurial Vapor 360 boots as the Brazilian ace continues his recovery from injury.

The PSG star injured the fifth metatarsal in his right foot during the French champions Coupe de France clash with Strasbourg last month and was ruled out for around seven weeks.

N+eymar, who has received treatment in Paris and Barcelona, headed back to Brazil on Thursday for a 10-day trip under supervision of PSG's medical department.

While he rested up on the flight, Neymar, wearing his own brand white cap, took the chance to spend the hours in the air wisely, showing off the designs of his latest boots.

With a finger to his lips, the boots, nicknamed 'Silencio', are said to reference 'his ability to turn the sound off and focus on the ball', according to Nike's website.

The boots feature a striking red Nike logo while the basis for the design is a blend of white and black. They will retail at £229.95 in the UK.

On Wednesday, Neymar cut a solemn figure at Barcelona airport after visiting his former side's club doctor. The striker was seen wearing dark sunglasses and a vintage tracksuit as he hobbled along.

He made the trip for consultation and treatment from Ramon Cugat and was pictured still using crutches for the broken metatarsal in his right foot.

Cugat is a renowned Spanish surgeon, specialising in orthopedic surgery, orthopaedic sports medicine and arthroscopy and evidently has the trust of Neymar.

The Brazilian admitted crying for two days after re-breaking the bone and is still set to be sidelined for another seven weeks.
