Santos prez tells Neymar it’s ‘time to come home’

“The time has come, Neymar. The time has come for you to return to your people. To your home, to our beloved club,” said Teixeira

Santos’ president told Brazilian superstar Neymar it was “time to return to [his] people” in a video published on social media on Tuesday. 

Club president Marcelo Teixeira took to Instagram to deliver the message to Neymar but did not officially confirm the 32-year-old’s return to the club where he first broke through in 2009. “The time has come, Neymar. The time has come for you to return to your people. To your home, to our beloved club,” said Teixeira. 

“What a pain it is to pack,” joked Neymar on his Instagram account on Tuesday, prior to Teixeira’s statement. Neymar’s contract with Saudi side Al Hilal was terminated by mutual consent on Monday, bringing to an end an injury-plagued 18-month stint in Riyadh. The former Barcelona and PSG forward played just seven matches for the club after joining in August 2023.
