Al Hilal: one last

Neymar, honorary contract until the end?

While a termination of his contrast had been mentioned, Neymar should finally join the Al Hilal project for the rest of the season. The Brazil striker is on the list of children eligible to play for the Saudi champions in place of Kalidou Koulibaly.

Neymar is in position at the end of the day with the galleries, but he is certain to talk about the long tunnel, which is due to take place on October 17, 2023.

Unavailable until next January due to a muscle injury, Hilal’s attack should nevertheless gain momentum in the second half of the season.

On the list in place of Koulibaly

Sidelined from the field following his serious left knee injury, the former Paris Saint-Germain player was able to see competition last October, in the Asian Champions League. But from his second entry into play, at the beginning of November, the Brazilian, short of rhythm, contracted a hamstring injury. Verdict: at least two months of absence.

While a termination of the Auriverde contract – which runs until the end of the season – is available and considered, Neymar will finally take full part in the Riyadh club’s project for the rest of the year. According to the newspaper Marca, Al Hilal will include its number 10 in the list of players eligible to play the second part of the Saudi championship and take the place of Kalidou Koulibaly!

7 matches in a year and a half

For his blessing, Neymar was chosen by 10 extra-community players with a team of authorizers at the start of the season. Clubs can benefit from the winter break to modify this quota. By sacrificing his son from the Senegalese central defense, who should be sold or loaned, Al Hilal therefore offers a final chance to the ex-Barcelonese to get back on track, his deposit expiring in June.

Arriving in October 2023 for 90 million euros, in Brazil there will be seven small matches with the club. After a final match in 2024 against Al Raed on Saturday, the Arabian champion will be an observer of his dream and will return to competition on January 7, during the last quarter of the King’s Cup against Al Ittihad. With Neymar?
