Part 6/7:
As Neymar prepares for his supposed debut against Botafogo de Ribeirão Preto, fans and analysts remain divided. Will he play consistently, or will this contract merely serve as a stopgap until he pursues opportunities abroad? Questions about his value to Santos also arise: should he play at all if he's not physically fit for competitive play?
In a landscape filled with uncertainty, the only palpable expectation seems to be that Neymar will provide moments of brilliance. Fans hope he can influence games and ignite passions as he did during his last tenure at Santos. Yet, the reality of his physical state means he may not be able to be the game-changing force consistently.
