Neymar returns to Europe?

A return to Europe to compete in the 2025/26 season would be an ideal opportunity for Neymar to regain his form before the 2026 World Cup in the US, Mexico and Canada.

At the moment, it is still unclear where Neymar will continue his journey.

According to Globo , Napoli had been in talks to sign Neymar in May. However, instead of completing the deal with Neymar, the Serie A team eventually decided to sign Kevin De Bruyne from Manchester City.

This decision raises big questions about the future of Neymar, who only returned to Santos earlier this year. Brazilian media believe that the former Barcelona star is open to the idea of ​​returning to Europe to play, especially after he received a lot of criticism during his time at Santos.

Neymar's contract with Santos also only lasts until December this year. After 9 months since returning to his home country to play, Neymar has only played 12 matches, scored 3 goals and is often injured.

The former Barcelona star has not played for Santos in recent times, despite the club trying to avoid relegation at the end of the season. The hamstring injury Neymar suffered in early September will keep him out of action for at least two months.

Neymar is in the recovery phase and will only be back on the field by the end of November, when the Brazilian National Championship is about to end. The current condition of this striker also makes the possibility of him ensuring his fitness for the 2026 World Cup - the ultimate goal of his career - gradually decrease.

Neymar's desire to return to Europe to play is understandable, especially when he hopes to shine with the Brazilian team at the 2026 World Cup - the final peak tournament of his career.
