The situation with Neymar at Santos seems to be reaching a point of tension, as indicated by recent developments. Junior Pedroso, Neymar’s agent’s right-hand man, expressed the opinion that Neymar should leave the club.
According to Globoesporte, the last 15 days have been complicated for Neymar. Issues include a controversial tweet from Joey Barton, a red card against Ponte Preta resulting in a 15-match suspension, and a controversy involving Pelé. The latter seems to have intensified the situation, with Neymar’s agent responding by bringing up the private affairs of the Brazilian football legend.
In response to the criticism from Pelé and the subsequent public reaction, Neymar expressed his frustration on his Facebook account. He mentions receiving threats and harsh comments through social media for merely expressing his opinion.
The overall picture painted by these events suggests a challenging period for Neymar at Santos, with a strained relationship not only on the field but also in the public and media sphere. The dynamics surrounding Neymar’s future in Brazilian football will be closely watched as the situation develops.
