Santos President Marcelo Teixeira did not exclude the option that striker Neymar would sign a new contract with the club. The ceremonial agreement of the 33-year-old Brazilian will end with his birth, but the parties will continue to change.

Neymar turned to Santos today as a free agent after a difficult period in Al-Hilal and a difficult rehabilitation after a cruciate ligament injury. The forward will be in optimal condition to play in his fourth world championship in 2026.

" As soon as we know the final decision, its continuation will be confirmed. I think that Santos and Neymar, who have stronger and more positive mutual understanding and trust, will come together as a leader. I believe that we are feeding at the right moment.

Santos and Neymar assess the situation periodically. We assessed them when they arrived, and the current assessment is different. The financial aspect will be considered by both parties until the end. You won't be able to change pennies.

And Santos is drawing his own line,” Marcelo Teixeiri is quoted as saying by ESPN.

Neymar, the highest scorer in the history of the Brazilian national team (79 goals), has not played for the national team since 2023 due to injury. Vіn without wasting until the rest of Carlo Ancelotti’s application and gradually renewing the form after relapses of muscle ulcers. On Saturday, the forward returned to the field after a 48-day break and took part in Santos’ goal in the match against Fortalesi (1:1).
