Neymar‘s time at Al-Hilal appears ⁤to be drawing to a close as the ⁢Brazilian star⁣ faces challenges on and off the pitch.

The 32-year-old forward has been left out of Al-Hilal’s squad ​for the upcoming second half of the Saudi Pro League season, signaling a significant⁢ shift in his status within ‌the team. Coach Jorge Jesus addressed the media on Friday, stating, “Neymar is not performing at the level we expect. It​ has been a tough period for him.” This statement raises questions about the player’s future with the club.

Injury Setbacks Impact Neymar’s Career

Neymar’s journey with Al-Hilal began in the summer of 2023 when he transferred for a staggering 90 million euros. Though, his ⁤time in Saudi Arabia has ‌been marred by injuries, limiting him to just ⁤seven appearances. A torn cruciate ligament sidelined him for nearly a year, and ⁣recent ​thigh issues have further complicated his return⁢ to form.

With his contract set to expire at the end of the current season, speculation about Neymar’s next⁣ move⁣ is intensifying. Reports suggest that several clubs in Major League Soccer (MLS)‌ are keen to secure his services, indicating that a transition to the United States coudl be on the horizon for the talented forward.
