Neymar has previously named the four Premier League clubs that he’d consider joining. The 32-year-old superstar has been heavily linked with an exit from Al Hilal recently, with his deal in the Middle East set to expire at the end of this season – prompting speculation on his future.. From January, overseas clubs will be able to open pre-contract discussions with Neymar, for a free transfer in the summer – unless he signs a new deal before then. If the Brazil star doesn’t sign an extension, the Saudi Pro League team will have a tough decision to make.. Al Hilal will need to decide whether they’d be willing to risk losing Neymar for free if negotiations drag on, or cut their losses and sell him in the next transfer window. As time ticks away, he has been strongly linked with a return to Santos, where he first made a name for himself as one of the world’s most promising players..

A move to the Premier League has also been suggested, putting clubs such as Manchester United and Manchester City on ‘high alert’. During his stint at Barcelona, Neymar revealed the four clubs he admires in the English top-flight.. “The Premier League is a championship that amazes me,” he was quoted by SportBible as saying. “I like the playing style and the teams. And who knows? Someday, I would like to play [in] it, yes.. “I admire Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool – these are the teams that are always there fighting.”. Despite the enthusiasm for seeing Neymar potentially take on the Premier League, Pini Zahavi has dismissed talks of his departure from Al Hilal. Speaking to Fabrizio Romano, his representative said: “There are no talks ongoing for Neymar to leave Al Hilal.. “He’s under contract and very happy there. Neymar’s father and myself, we are the only people who can talk about Ney’s future. I don’t know where recent rumours are coming from.”. Try MUFC Pro NOW for free.
