The Brazilian national team star already has experience in France, where he played for PSG between 2017 and 2023
Atacante Neymar may leave Santos and sign with Olympique Marseille in France. The information was reported by Argentine TV station TyC Sports this Tuesday (July 29).
The Brazilian national team star already has experience in France, where he played for PSG between 2017 and 2023. According to the Argentine broadcaster, the Marseille club has shown interest in Neymar, seeing him as the main reinforcement for the next Champions League.
Despite the French club’s interest, it’s worth noting that Neymar renewed his contract with Santos until the end of this year. However, despite his strong connection with Santos, the player has been a key target for the fans and is under significant pressure at the club, which is currently fighting to avoid relegation to Série B of the Brazilian Championship. Santos is in a delicate situation, in the Brasileirão relegation zone.
The team sits in 17th place with 15 points, the same score as Vasco, the first team outside the relegation zone, which has an advantage on goal difference (-4 to -6). The tension between Neymar and the fans was evident on July 23, when the player exchanged insults with a fan at Vila Belmiro after the 2-1 loss to Internacional. The argument left the athlete quite uncomfortable with the pressure in the Santos environment.
