Having left Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2023 to join the Saudi club Al-Hilal, Neymar has practically not played with his new team, the fault of a new series of more or less serious injuries. At the end of his contract next June, the thirty-two-year-old Brazilian still does not know what his future will hold. A hacker took advantage of the situation to give false joy to the Coritiba club.
Current resident of the Brazilian Serie B, Coritiba should not move up to the higher level this season since it is no less than fourteen points behind Ceara, fourth and last potential qualifier for a return to Serie A. But now on the club’s website, news appeared on Saturday which brought a smile to the supporters’ faces. The arrival of Neymar was announced in July 2025.
False joy
For an hour, this surprising message remained online: “Official press release: Neymar, new reinforcement from Coritiba. It is with great joy that Coritiba Football Club announces the arrival of star Neymar Junior, one of the greatest icons of world football. » The problem is that it was all just a big joke, the work of a hacker. After discovering the deception and deleting the false press release, Coritiba denied the arrival of the “Ney”.
And if Neymar were to return to the Brazilian championship, it would more logically be with his training club Santos, with which he remains very close and whose leaders have also expressed their wish to repatriate their nugget. It remains to be seen what Neymar will decide next summer, but also to see in what physical state he will be.
