Neymar, Al Hilal’s new signing, on Thursday matched the level of the Saudi Arabian league in France, where he played for the last six seasons.
“The ball is round, there is a goal. To the players who came, “I don’t know if the Saudi league is better than the French championship,” Neymar said with a laugh, comparing Saudi and French football at a press conference with the Brazilian team in the city of Belém.
Neymar, who has not yet made his debut with his new team, said that he is convinced that the Saudi league “will not be easy” because many important teams are strengthened by well-known players, “it will be very interesting .”
The 30-year-old forward made sure he knows what he needs to do to be fit to play and continue wearing the Brazilian national team shirt.
“I want to win titles at Al Hilal”
“I want to win titles with Al Hilal. It doesn’t change my head much,” commented Neymar, emphasizing that is happy with his decision to sign for Al Hilal, although he did not want to delve into the reasons that led him to the Saudi championship.
“Many wise men have spoken, but only I know what happened, why I decided to go to Al Hilal, but this is not your concern, only mine,” he concluded.
Neymar is concentrating on the Brazilian team in Belém, where this Friday he will play in the first match of the South American qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup against Bolivia.
