On his way to Al-Hilal, in Saudi Arabia, Neymar would have his next career steps planned, with the 2026 World Cup in mind, according to the newspaper.
The newest bombshell signing in the world of football is Neymar Jr at the al-hilal, from Saudi Arabia. Although many imagine that this move would be the beginning of the end of the Brazilian player’s career, according to “L’Equipe”, the next steps after the two-year contract are already calculated.
Neymar is signing the biggest contract of his career, where he will earn around R$ 1.7 billion during the two years he will be in Arabia. After that, in 2025, when he will be 33 years old, he plans to return to Europe and prepare for the 2026 World Cup, which he still wants to play with the Brazilian national team.
As is to be expected, this was not the first intention of the athlete, who wanted to stay in Europe and did not see any club with enough money to take him out of the PSG and pay your salary. O barcelona was the player’s main option, but the salary reduction would be drastic and the French club would not be able to reach an agreement with the Catalans, in the Brazilian’s thinking.
Therefore, Neymar leaves European football 10 years after his arrival at Barça, where he won several national titles and a Champions League, in 2015. At PSG since 2017, the number 10 played in 173 matches, a low number due to the numerous injuries suffered . Even so, he left 118 goals and 70 assists.
