Under a wave of suspicion and criticism, Neymar will start his Copa America preparations on Tuesday. The Copa America starts on June 14 with host Brazil facing Bolivia in the opening match at Morumbi Stadium in Sao Paulo. Neymar is also heading into the Copa America, a tournament Brazil hasn’t won since 2007, with a disciplinary problem. Cafu, a former Brazil captain who led the team to the World Cup title in 2002, said Neymar was not showing enough respect for the armband. The Copa America will mark Neymar’s fourth tournament played at home.
