Brazilian footballer Neymar Junior has mutually agreed to terminate his contract with the club "Al-Hilal" (Saudi Arabia).
The star player, who once became the most expensive in history by moving to Paris for €222 million, may now return to his hometown club "Santos".
Neymar joined "Al-Hilal" in the summer of 2023 for a fee of around $98 million, signing an incredible personal contract.
The Brazilian earned $103 million during his year at "Al-Hilal". Considering he spent about 18 months at the club, he was expected to earn $156 million during this time.
However, due to ongoing injuries and their recurrences while at "Al-Hilal", Neymar only played 7 matches, scoring 3 goals and providing 1 assist.
Background. Recently, a significant event occurred in the world of women's football – a transfer record was broken for the transfer of a female player.
