The forward will travel to Brazil in the coming days to undergo medical tests and finalize his incorporation into the team where he emerged before his move to FC Barcelona in 2013. His contract with the São Paulo club will be for a short period, with no possibility of extension, as his main goal is to regain the necessary competitive level to return to a top-tier league in Europe.
Neymar Wants to Return to Europe
Neymar's decision comes after an unproductive period in Saudi Arabia, where injuries limited his participation to just seven games since his arrival in 2023. Now, on his return to Santos, the striker hopes to gain minutes, rediscover his best form, and prove that he still has a lot to offer in elite football.
The move not only generates expectations in Brazil but also in the European market, where several clubs may be monitoring his progress. The question now is what his final destination will be once this brief but significant stage in his career ends.
