Denies leaving Al Hilal, Neymar’s agent dismisses rumors of returning to Santos

Bola.net – Pini Zahavi has denied recent rumors that his client, Neymar, has agreed to leave Al Hilal and return to his childhood club, Santos.

Neymar returned from a year-long injury absence at the end of October but struggled to immediately rediscover his best form.

The Brazilian’s return was a 13-minute appearance as a substitute and he was unable to complete his second appearance as a substitute against Esteghlal FC, limping off with a hamstring problem.

Neymar has played less than 500 minutes as a starter in nearly 18 months at Al Hilal, leading some to suggest he will move from Saudi Arabia.

A transfer report claiming that Neymar was returning to Santos was intense, but Zahavi quickly denied the false claim.

“There are no ongoing talks for Neymar to leave Al Hilal,” Zahavi said.

“He is still under contract and very happy there.
