Brazilian soccer star Neymar (32-Alhilal) may be returning to Brazil after the biggest “eat and run” stigma of all time. Reports have emerged that the Saudi Arabian league player has terminated his contract with his current club Alhilal and is pushing to return to his hometown team, Brazilian side Santos, where he made his professional debut. South American soccer transfer market expert Cesar Luis Merlo (Argentina) wrote on social media on Dec. 18, “Neymar and Santos have agreed to return. They are in talks with Alhilal to terminate their contracts early.”
Neymar left Paris Saint-Germain (France) for Al-Hilal in August last year. The transfer fee alone was $90 million (about $125.6 billion). It was a two-year contract with an annual salary of 150 million euros (about 220.8 billion won). The deal reportedly included a private plane, hotel and restaurant fees, and a mansion with eight supercars, 25 rooms and three saunas.
However,
Neymar has only played seven games in over a year and three months since his arrival. He tore his anterior cruciate ligament three months after joining the club and spent nearly a year on the sidelines, and after returning last month, 카지노사이트 he was sidelined with another hamstring injury just two games into the season. In those seven games, he played an average of 61 minutes per game (428 minutes total), scoring one goal and providing three assists. If he leaves the club with two years’ worth of salary (€300 million), he will have earned €42.85 million per game and nearly €700,000 per minute.
Neymar’s agent denied the rumors, saying, “There are no discussions about ending his contract,” and “I don’t know where these rumors are coming from.” However, the reporter who first broke the news, Merlo, said, “It’s true. Time will prove it,” he claimed.
The speculation that Neymar will leave Saudi Arabia is gaining momentum. There have been speculations that he will move to Inter Miami (USA), where Lionel Messi (37-Argentina) and Luis Suarez (37-Uruguay), his former teammates at Barcelona (Spain), form the “MSN Trio”. Neymar recently purchased a 13,000-square-foot house in Miami for $26 million.
