Neymar Extends Contract With Santos Until End Of 2025

Sao Paulo: Neymar extended his contract with the Brazilian club Santos until the end of December.

The 33 -year -old returned to childhood club in late January, but was limited to injuries. The current deal will end next week. Neymar and Santos confirmed the extension on Tuesday.

Neymar, in a video on social media channels, “I expanded my contract with Santos. I went, I went back and I stayed in the place where everything started and never ends,” he said.

Both sides did not explain why many Brazilians still did not extend their contract until the middle of 2026, when they still expect to play in the World Cup. At the beginning of June, the new Brazilian coach Carlo Ancelotti implied that Neymar relied on healing to play in the tournament in the United States, Mexico and Canada.

Since Saudi Arabia left Al-Hilal for Santos, Neymar has played 12 matches, scored three goals and provided three assists. There was absenteeism for two long time due to muscle injuries.

Neymar played 225 matches for Santos in the first magic. He scored 138 goals, many of them fell in 2023 and returned to the top of the top year.

The last appearance for the team was annoying; Santos 76 minutes to score on June 1 after using his hand to make a loss of 1-0 Botafogo was sent to Botafogo.

Neymar noticed that he could not reach the ball before cleaning a defense player and used his right hand to push the ball into the network.

Brazil was already a yellow card, and the latter was shown by the referee and then did not allow the target. Botafogo later won the 86th.

Saudi Club Al-Hilal ended his contract with mutual consent in the early hours of Neymar’s only seven matches. An ACL injury left him for a year until October. Al-Hilal said Neymar cannot perform as before.

Neymar also offered silver items and goals, despite offering Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain for criticism.

Santos is ranked 15th in the Brazilian League with 11 points after 12 games.
