Neymar has expressed a strong desire to renew his contract with Santos, which expires on 30 June. The 33-year-old gave a seven out of ten chance of staying, citing emotional ties and his ongoing recovery. Despite limited game time (711 minutes) and off-field controversies, Neymar insists Santos is his home and priority.
In the midst of intense speculation surrounding Neymar’s next move, the Brazilian star has expressed a strong desire to continue with Santos FC, the club where his career began. Despite ongoing rumors linking him with a return to Europe or a potential shift to Major League Soccer, Neymar appears optimistic about extending his stay at the Brazilian outfit, where his current contract ends on June 30, 2025.
In a recent interview with BandSport, Neymar rated the chances of staying at Santos as “seven out of ten,” emphasizing his deep emotional connection to the club. "I was born in Santos and I want to die there," said the 33-year-old, highlighting his affection for his childhood team. He further stated that he returned to Santos to rediscover his happiness and rebuild his fitness after injury setbacks.
Despite only managing 711 minutes of game time so far this season, and facing criticism for attending events like the Rio Carnival and Kings League matches during recovery, Neymar remains focused on his long-term goal with Santos. His father has also confirmed the star’s intention to remain. As negotiations for a contract renewal progress, Neymar's words reaffirm his commitment to the club that first shaped his footballing journey.
