Globo predicts that the former Barcelona and PSG star could be in contention for next week's Copa do Brasil clash against CRB. On the afternoon of May 15 (local time), Neymar was present at Santos' training ground after weeks of working out in the gym.

Neymar was initially expected to return for the June 1 match against Botafogo in the national championship. However, the striker believes he is close to reaching his best condition to return to competition.

Neymar's return is expected, as Santos are struggling in the relegation zone. But it is unlikely that the coaching staff will risk Neymar starting the away match against CRB. He may appear to boost the morale of the team.

In addition, coach Carlo Ancelotti also wants Neymar in the Brazilian squad for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Neymar's experience and class are still highly appreciated by the Italian coach. In addition to Neymar, Casemiro or Antony can also return to the national team.

Neymar's future is still a big question mark, because his contract with Santos will end on June 30. With little contribution, this striker is at risk of not being signed by Santos long term.

Neymar scored a superb free kick from a tight angle. On the morning of March 3 ( Hanoi time), Neymar scored a beautiful goal to help Santos beat Bragantino 2-0 in the Paulista State Championship.
