Neymar, the forward for Paris Saint-Germain, has stated his desire to return to his childhood club, Santos.
Neymar is presently nursing a knee injury but appeared at Santos’ Copa Sudamericana clash with Audax Italiano on Thursday.
After the match, which he watched from one of the club’s executive boxes, Neymar told GOAL: “It is nice to come back to my house.
“I feel at home here, so happy to be back here after ten years. Unfortunately, it was a draw, I wanted the win.
“I came here to support Santos and receive the affection of the fans.
“It was the club that gave me everything, that opened doors for me and my family, that revealed me to the world.
“One day I will be back. I will be back soon.”
Neymar’s contract with PSG will expire in 2025 and he could choose to stay at the French Ligue 1 champions in an attempt to run down his deal before heading back to Brazil as a free agent.
