Neymar scored his first goal for Santos since he returned to Brazil, when he converted to a penalty on Sunday (17 February 2025) in a 3–1 win over Sao Paulo-based água Santa.
Finding the net from the spot in the 14th minute of the Sao Paulo State Championship match will provide some relief to the 33 -year -old star after a difficult restart.
With the help by Theasiano and Neymar in the 26th, in the 70th, scoring for Santos was excluded.
So far, Neymar has not managed to play 90 minutes in a match for Santos. His performance in the first three matches for the club was equal, but he showed some improvement on Sunday (February 17, 2025) as he continued his recovery from a knee injury.
Neymar officially returned to football in October after a whole year.
He confirmed last month that his contract with Saudi Club Al-Hilal was abolished by mutual consent. He had an injury in Al-Hilal, where he played only seven matches and scored once.
Neymar has signed a six -month contract with Santos, which he said that it could be extended later.
In his first professional mantra in Santos from 2009 to 2013, he scored 138 goals in 225 official matches. Brazil became the most expensive player in the history of football when he transferred from Barcelona to PSG from Barcelona to PSG in 2017. He went to Al-Hilal in 2023 for 90 million euros ($ 94 million).
