Many Brazilian fans have been wanting to know when Neymar will come back to play football after he suffered an ACL injury back in October. His injury caused him to miss the majority of the season with Al Hilal in his debut season. Neymar's return is very anticipated, as the Brazilian fans and the Al Hilal fans want him back. Brazil fans were very disappointed with the national team's performance in the Copa America 2024. Neymar is expected to be back soon, and Al Hilal is already planning to be ready to let him play in a few months. Reports in Saudi Arabia suggest that Al Hilal will not wait until January to register Neymar, who will return in September. They also report that Neymar may not participate in the first month and a half of the start of the season, but he will start participating gradually until he is fully ready and fit. Neymar has been training on his own and has started to run, which is a great sign for fans.

Reports in the Middle East suggest that the manager of Al Hilal, Jorge Jesus, believes that his Al Hilal team will be stronger and better than last season with the presence of Neymar. Al Hilal won the Saudi Pro League, the King's Cup Trophy, and the Saudi Super Cup this past season. They were undefeated domestically, and the team hopes to win more trophies next season with Neymar fully fit within the squad.

A week ago, Neymar said that he feels ready now, hinting that his return is very close. Neymar said, "There in Al Hilal, I trained in the gym and watched my teammates training there, I really missed it, but I'm back now." The Brazilian star is expected to return with Al Hilal in September and could also start playing for the Brazilian national team later this year for the World Cup qualifiers.
