Neymar wants Paul Pogba, Sergio Ramos & Thiago Silva to join him at Santos as Brazil star calls for more reinforcements ahead of homecoming transfer

Santos have confirmed the signing of the 32-year-old will soon be announced after Al-Hilal agreed to terminate his contract, ending an injury-plauged two-year spell with the Saudi Pro League title hopefuls.

According to UOL, the attacker is pushing the club to make a few more sensational signings. The ex-Barcelona star has suggested they bring in free agents Paul Pogba and Sergio Ramos as well as Brazil legend Thiago Silva, who joined Fluminense last July after leaving Chelsea. Former Real Madrid star Marcelo and Paulo Henrique Ganso, who was a breakthrough star at Santos alongside Neymar, have also been mentioned as options.

Former Manchester United midfielder Pogba is preparing to return to the game after having a doping ban reduced, clearing him to step back on the field in March, while Ramos has been without a club since he left Sevilla last season.

Brazilian giants Santos were relegated to Serie B at the end of the 2023 season but went on to claim the league title at the first time of asking, sealing their return to the top flight. With Neymar on his way back, fans will be hoping the glory days will soon return, but the ex-Paris Saint-Germain star seems to feel they need a few more stars in the squad.

Neymar managed only seven appearances in all competitions for Al-Hilal as injuries kept him out of action for long periods. He will aim to get back to full fitness as soon as possible to make sure he is ready to star for Santos once again.
