Head coach of Al-Hilal Jorge Jesus announced that 32-year-old Brazilian forward Neymar will not be included in the team's squad for the second half of the Saudi Arabian championship.
Neymar will not be registered in the team for the championship. He can participate in the Asian Champions League. Neymar can no longer play at the level we are used to. Things have become difficult for him, unfortunately.
It's important to note that the star Brazilian injured his cruciate ligaments in October 2023 but managed to recover by October 2024. Later, during an Asian Champions League match against Esteghlal, Neymar sustained another injury, damaging his hamstring.
Neymar joined Al-Hilal in the summer of 2023, and his contract with the club is set to last until the summer of 2025. He has played seven matches for the Saudi club, scoring one goal and providing three assists. According to Transfermarkt, his market value is estimated at €15 million.
Currently, Al-Hilal is at the top of the Pro League table, with Jorge Jesus's team amassing 40 points after 15 matches.
Earlier this year, Neymar earned €101 million while playing only 42 minutes in two matches for Al-Hilal.
Additionally, one of the owners of the American club Inter Miami, Jorge Mas, stated that he intends to sign the 32-year-old Brazilian.
