Neymar’s return to the pitch is getting closer after, according to reports from Saudi Arabia, Al Hilal decided to make room for the Brazilianwho is already in the final stages of his knee recovery, in October 2023.
According to Al Riyadiah media, The Arab team decided to remove Renan Lodi from the list in order to be able to register Neymar, taking into account that this way they can meet the limit of foreigners in the local competition. This same decision, but in reverse – with Neymar leaving due to injury – was the one taken by Al Hilal less than a year ago.
It should be remembered that since his arrival in Saudi Arabia, Neymar, who was paid 80 million euros to Paris Saint Germain, has only been able to play five gamesin which he scored a goal and provided two assists.
The serious injury that has kept Neymar off the pitch for almost a year, occurred in the middle of the match between the Brazilian National Team and its counterpart from Uruguay in the Qualifiers. Since then, the foreigner quotas at Al Hilal have been filled by Bono, Koulibaly, Joao Cancelo, Rúben Neves, Milinkovic-Savic, Mitrovic, Malcom and the aforementioned Renan Lodi.
