A few days ago Neymar witnessed Santos’ 1-0 victory against Corinthians, in Vila Belmiro. The Brazilian, who is recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus, went to see the club where he made himself known before arriving in Europe.
The president of Santos, Marcelo Teixeira, took advantage of the visit of the Al Hilal player to have a conversation about the possibility of seeing him again at the club. “It (the conversation) was quick, but it is always the quickest ones that have a good effect. No, no, it’s early (to sign a pre-contract). He still has to recover better. To play here you have to recover well. He will continue with the experience there and then he will come,” confirmed the president.
Teixeira also said that Neymar wanted to watch the classic against Corinthians. “He himself wanted to come to the game, we simply gave him the best conditions,” he said.
Santos’ own coach, Fábio Carille, also spoke about the dream of seeing Neymar again among his ranks. “It would be great to have Neymar. We know it’s difficult, he is a different player. He sees Endrick leaving at 16, 17 years old. Really, he cannot establish himself in Brazilian football. It is a distant dream, but let’s dream,” said the coach.
If Neymar returns to Santos, the Brazilian would join a team that has been relegated to Serie B for the first time in its history. Without a doubt, the Brazilian star would have the great goal of leading his team to the Brasileirão.
