Neymar apparently wants to start again in the autumn. His advisor is an old acquaintance – and should also keep an eye on Germany as a transfer goal.
Does a world star do a very quick turnaround here? Neymar apparently wants to go back to Europe – and relies on prominent support. The Brazilian star, who has only been playing for his home club FC Santos since January, would like to recommend a change to a top European club.
In order to implement his plan, Neymar reported that the experienced consultant Pini Zahavi has reported. The Israeli, who had already threaded Neymar’s record change from Barça to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, is now to arrange a change for his client in Europe again.
According to a report by the Spanish newspaper “Mundo Deportivo”, Zahavi has even contacted Neymar’s ex-club Barça. However, the Catalans are currently not supposed to show interest in an obligation – although Neymar would be available in summer.
From a German perspective, Zahavi is also said to have offered the offensive player to FC Bayern. Zahavi was also leading to Barcelona when changing Robert Lewandowski from Munich. However, a Neymar transfer to the Isar appears unlikely, since the Munich are well occupied in the wing positions. Leroy Sané’s contract expires next summer, but an extension with the DFB international is considered possible.
According to “Mundo Deportivo”, it is more likely that Neymar and his consultant are looking for alternatives. A move to the Premier League should also be possible for the Brazilian. Already in 2023 he was associated with Chelsea FC before moving to Al-Hilal. At that time, however, Neymar chose a transfer to Saudi Arabia, which brought around 90 million euros.
The Brazilian national team’s record goalkeeper was already faced with Munich in 2013. “I almost went to Bavaria because of Pep Guardiola,” said Neymar in a podcast only in February. The Catalan star coach, at that time in the Sabbath year, told him in advance that he would go to FC Bayern.
“Guardiola then sat down in my room and said that he wanted me to have me in his team,” Neymar recalled. “He was sitting with a laptop and note and showing me in detail how he wanted to let me play. He said that if you don’t score 60 goals a year, I change my name.” At that time, the attacker decided to switch to FC Barcelona. And even now there will be nothing to move to Munich.
