Iconic Brazilian football whiz, Neymar, has completed an emotional return to his boyhood club Santos from Saudi side Al-Hilal.

The Brazilian moved to Saudi Arabia in August 2023 but injuries saw him reduced to just seven appearances totalling 428 minutes of action.

On account of his health and poor return on investment Al-Hilal agreed to terminate his contract by mutual consent, paving the way for the 32-year-old to return to his boyhood side on a free transfer.

He has signed an initial deal until the end of the season.

Prior to his move to Barcelona, Neymar appeared 225 times for Santos, still the most of any club in his career. In that time, he scored 136 goals and grabbed 64 assists.
