A public exchange between two football stars recently ignited discussions. Memphis Depay, Corinthians player, invited Neymar to join his Brazilian club. This proposal sparked many reactions, fueling speculation about a potential return of the Al-Hilal star to Brazil. But “Ney”, interviewed during the Brazilian Poker Championship, quickly clarified his position.
Neymar’s loyalty to Santos
Rather than giving in to Depay’s advances, Neymar reaffirmed his deep attachment to Santos, the club that saw him flourish. Highlighting Pelé’s legacy and emphasizing his personal connection to the team, he said: “Santos is the biggest club in the world. He revealed the king (Pele) and the prince (myself). You have to respect Santos. It’s my favorite club. » A direct response which shows that, despite his respect for Corinthians, his heart remains linked to his first club.
A future still unclear
Although Neymar is true to his roots, his immediate future remains uncertain. With his contract with Al-Hilal expiring at the end of the season, speculation surrounds a possible return to Brazil, possibly to Santos. However, to consider a transfer, he will have to demonstrate that he can overcome his recent physical problems and return to his usual level.
For the moment, Neymar remains a key player in football discussions, whether it is about his future or his adventures off the field. The next few months will be decisive for the Brazilian striker.
