Earlier, a video of Neymar working out in Al-Hilal's core group surfaced on the internet and it was speculated that the Brazilian's return was about to happen, but the Saudi club's head coach Jorge Jesus does not share such optimism.
Details: According to the Portuguese, it is still too early to talk about Neymar's return and it may even have to wait until January for the big-name striker to return to the squad.
Quote: ‘Neymar is an important player for Al-Hilal and the league as a whole. However, I can not give a date when he will return, but we will look at the situation in January,’ - quotes Jesus Goal.
Recall: Neymar moved to Al-Hilal in the summer of 2023 from PSG for 90 million euros. On 18 October last year he suffered a severe injury to the cruciate ligaments of the knee in the match of qualifiers for the World Cup-2026 against Uruguay. For Al-Hilal he managed to play only 5 matches, scored 1 goal and made 3 assists.
