Neymar Agrees to Six-Month Loan Return to Santos from Al-Hilal Amid €63M Salary Dispute
Jan 20, 2025, 12:37 AM
Santos FC has reached an agreement with Neymar to return to the club on a six-month loan from Al-Hilal, where his contract is set to expire in June 2025. The Brazilian star, who has been out of favor at the Saudi club, is seeking to terminate his contract early to facilitate the move back to his boyhood club. Neymar's desire to return to Santos has been a key factor in the negotiations, with the player expressing a strong wish to rejoin the team that launched his career. The deal is contingent on Neymar successfully negotiating his release from Al-Hilal, a process complicated by the approximately €63 million in salary he is still owed by the Saudi club. Santos is optimistic about the transfer and has prepared an emotional appeal, including a video narrated by the late Pelé, to persuade Neymar to return.
