This information was revealed by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano and quickly attracted media attention, especially as the 2026 World Cup is fast approaching.

At 33, Neymar understands that time is running out, especially if he wants to participate in what could be his last World Cup. Staying at Santos is seen as a strategic choice to maintain his form, ensure his fitness, and impress coach Carlo Ancelotti, who is building a new framework for the "Selecao".

After returning to action in November, Neymar quickly made his mark. He scored 5 goals in just 7 games, including a hat-trick against Juventus, and regularly featured as captain.

Previously, Neymar caused a stir among fans when he declared he would score in the World Cup final and bring the trophy home for Brazil if called up.

However, the path back to the national team is not easy. Neymar has not worn the "Selecao" jersey since September 2023, when he suffered a serious knee injury.

A series of persistent injuries caused him to miss a total of 89 matches since moving to Al Hilal in 2023, before returning to Santos earlier this year.

Neymar remains the greatest goalscorer in the history of the Brazilian national team with 79 goals in 128 matches, surpassing the legendary Pele in September 2023.

Neymar shines: On the morning of November 29th, Neymar shone in a crucial match, helping Santos win 3-0 against Recife to temporarily escape the relegation zone in round 36 of the Brazilian National Championship.
