Brazilian star Neymar da Silva has made an official request to the management of Al Hilal FC, asking for permission to leave and return to his former club, Santos in Brazil. This request comes after a period of deep reflection by the player, who has spent only one season with Al Hilal following his high-profile move last summer.
Sources close to Neymar confirmed that the player feels the need to return to Brazil to continue his football career in a more comfortable environment for him and his family, in addition to his desire to return to Santos, the club where he began his professional career before moving to Europe and then to Al Hilal.
This request has sparked significant controversy within the Saudi sports community, as many expected Neymar to stay at Al Hilal for a longer period, especially after his strong performances last season. However, it seems that the player is seeking new challenges in his career and wants to return to Brazil after spending a long time in Europe and Saudi Arabia.
Although Al Hilal's management has not yet issued an official statement regarding this request, there are expectations that the club may review the offer and explore available options, should they agree to Neymar's departure.
