Neymar’s football journey began in Santos, Brazil, where he joined Santos FC in 2003, catching the attention of European clubs with his immense talent. He left for Barcelona in 2013, moved to PSG, and recently joined Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia. However, Neymar’s stint in Saudi Arabia hasn’t been smooth, with only six matches played due to injuries.
Speculation about Neymar’s return to Santos has recently resurfaced. Santos President Osvaldo Nico hinted at Neymar’s possible return next season, stating, “Neymar will come to Santos in June. We’ve talked, and everyone here remembers his days with the club.”
Despite this, Neymar addressed the rumors, saying, “I won’t be returning to Santos next year. The reports are completely false. I still have a year left with Al-Hilal, and I’m looking forward to a successful season.” While he confirmed his love for Santos and expressed hope to return someday, he emphasized no current plans to rejoin his childhood club.
