“Ten (level of optimism of the fans). Santos is my home. I am very happy this Friday (28) at Santos. I am so happy. It is obvious that we dreamed of winning the São Paulo title, but unfortunately it did not happen. It was in the details, there were details that we were unable to improve, but it was a lesson for us to start the Brazilian championship very well. So, I am very happy, very happy, excited. We have a great range of players, we have very high quality players and we hope to be up there at the top”, said Neymar to TNT Sports.
The Santos star also lamented the fact that the Brazilian national team missed the FIFA date. Neymar revealed that his physical condition is improving, and the decision to sit out the games for Brazil was made in conjunction with doctors.
“It’s always very difficult to be left out of the Brazilian national team, regardless of how long it is. It’s always been my dream to play for the Brazilian national team, so whenever I’ve been there, I’ve always given it my all, so being left out is really bad. And my condition now is that I’m getting better and better, I’m working hard in the gym, working hard there so that I can come back 100%. It was a decision made together with the doctors so that I would hold on a little longer and not rush things so that this wouldn’t happen again,” said Neymar.
Neymar returned to Brazilian football to play for Santos just over a month ago. He was announced by the São Paulo club on January 31. In fact, during this period, the forward played in seven matches, spending 548 minutes on the field. He also scored three goals – including the first Olympic goal of his career, the other two from penalties and free kicks – and contributed three assists.
In the match against Bragantino, the number 10 left the field after 30 minutes after feeling discomfort in his left thigh. However, after the match, the player used social media to reassure fans, stating that he was fine and that he preferred to ‘take it easy’ after feeling the pain. Stay ahead with BB Score.
