Part 6/8:
While Santos seems willing to welcome Neymar back with open arms, the climate at Al Hilal is different. Critics, including coach Jorge Jesus, have suggested that Neymar has not been physically able to compete at the expected level. Thus, Al Hilal is reconsidering the benefit of continuing their financial commitment to him, particularly when no productive outcomes were forthcoming from his time there.
As negotiations progress towards a potential contract termination with Al Hilal, it appears that both parties recognize that continuing the relationship is not beneficial. This evolution underlines the realities professional athletes face when their performance does not meet expectations.
