Victim of a serious knee injury last October and gone to Brazil for treatment, Neymar made his comeback to Saudi Arabia this Monday.
The “Ney” is back. Victim of a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligaments and the meniscus of the left knee, on October 17 while playing in a match with the Seleçao, the former Parisian began his rehabilitation at home in Brazil. A rehabilitation that he will now continue in Saudi Arabia.
Indeed, his club Al-Hilal, which he joined last summer from Paris for the tidy sum of 90 million euros, announced this Monday evening the return of its Auriverde star. “ Glad to see our Brazilian magician Neymar back in Riyadh »wrote the Saudi team on X (formerly Twitter), accompanying its message with a few photos.
Neymar welcomed like a king
The local media Arriyadiyah explains, for his part, that the player landed in Riyadh Monday evening at 8 p.m. aboard a private plane with three of his friends. Waited at the airport by several Al-Hilal leaders, who gave him gifts, Neymar took the time to sign autographs and strike a pose with children who came to welcome him.
As a reminder, the Santos prodigy, who is not expected to play again this season, has only played five small matches (in all competitions) since his transfer to Al-Hilal, for 1 goal scored and 2 assists delivered.
