Neymar’s adventure in Saudi Arabia is a fiasco, which is why the Brazilian wants to return to Europe. Barça is his favorite destination, but the Catalan club does not want its former player.
Al-Hilal’s flagship recruit from Paris Saint-Germain for 90 million euros in 2023, Neymar did not meet expectations at all. Since his arrival in Saudi Arabia, the Brazilian international has spent most of his time injured. Barely back on the pitch, Neymar is already planning for the rest of his career since his contract with Al-Hilal will expire next June. For the former number ten of PSG, there is no question of staying in the Saudi Pro League, despite a colossal salary estimated at 100 million euros per year.
According to information from the E-Noticies site, the absolute priority of the Neymar clan is to put together a sensational return to FC Barcelona as quickly as possible. But the Catalan club doesn’t really see it that way. Back at an exceptional level with Hansi Flick, Barça has found a balance with players such as Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo, Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha. And for nothing in the world, Joan Laporta does not want to weaken this symbiosis within the Catalan offensive sector.
Neymar “useless”, Barça tells him no
This is how the president of Barça would have taken his phone himself to answer calls from Neymar’s foot and thus explain to him that there was simply no “no room” for him in the near future in Catalonia. A terrible response for Neymar, who already saw himself teaming up with Lamine Yamal and co from next season. As if that were not enough, the staff of the current leader of La Liga privately confided that the potential arrival of Neymar would be ” useless “ and that therefore, there would be no negotiations on this subject in the coming weeks. At least the Spanish vice-champion was clear, leaving no room for doubts and ambiguity about his intentions with the former PSG player.
