Forward Neymar of "Paris Saint-Germain" and the Brazilian national team, who is close to a transfer to "Al-Hilal" in Saudi Arabia, attempted to stay in Europe, according to The Independent.
According to the source, the player offered his services to "Bayern Munich," "Barcelona," "Manchester City," "Manchester United," "Real Madrid," and "Chelsea."

In total, the Brazilian played 173 matches for the French club in all tournaments, scored 118 goals, and provided 77 assists. The player's contract with the club is valid until the summer of 2025 with an option to extend for another year.
