Neymar insisted that he gave “everything to play” for Al-Hilal, although he ended with the Saudi Arabian club after only seven games.
In August 2023, the Brazil striker from Paris Saint-Germain entered into a deal worth £ 77 million to Al-Hilal and approved a reported salary of 129 million GBP per year.
However, a knee injury was played in his Saudi career for his country in a World Cup qualification game against Uruguay.
However, he returned in November, but struggled to achieve an effect, and his deal was ended last night of mutual approval.

The 32-year-old is generally expected to return to the Santos boys’ club in his homeland in Brazil. Neymar made over 150 appearances for Santos before he came to Barcelona in 2013.
