Santos FC Overview

Brazilian forward Neymar is back on the training pitch with Santos, looking sharp and scoring goals in a recently shared video. The return to domestic action comes swiftly after a heartbreaking exit from the 2026 World Cup, which culminated in his emotional international retirement and intense scrutiny over how his fitness was managed during the tournament.

Brazil icon Neymar has wasted no time finding a new competitive outlet following the Selecao's disappointing 2026 World Cup campaign. The 34-year-old was spotted at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas just days after his country was eliminated from the tournament by Norway.

With 57% of Brazil Serie A games producing goals at both ends, this could be the most prolific season in the division in over a decade.

The footballing world stood still as Neymar announced his international retirement in the aftermath of Brazil’s shock exit from the 2026 World Cup. However, the legendary forward’s father has since taken to social media to issue a moving plea, begging his son to reconsider hanging up his boots for good.
