In recent days the possibility has gained strength Neymar can leave the Al Hilal to return to the team where he started, the saints Brazilian. A departure that will take place a few months before the end of his contract, which was initially scheduled until June 30. This operation can be carried out without fear of any punishment from FIFA.
This means that Neymar can unilaterally break his contract and return to his native Brazil with every guarantee that he will be able to play without any problems. This was not possible until the last few months, specifically until October 4 when the Court of Justice of the EU ruled on the complaint of the player Lass Diarra for the French player’s decision to terminate his contract without just cause with Lokomotiv de Moscow.
Until then, Neymar, with a valid contract and within the protected period (a period set by FIFA and which, in his case, is over 28 years old, including the first three years of the contract) decision means sanction for four. months without playing with any team in the world. Only in the national team.
But as we explained to MD, since January 1, a transitional rule in article 17 of the Regulation on the Transfer of Players Statute has come into effect allowing their departure. It clarifies that the contract can be terminated by either party without any kind of consequences when there is a just cause. And this may be it.
There was also no sanction for Santos
What is certain is that the player will have to pay Al Hilal for the remaining months of his contract, where he is expected to receive around 65 million euros. Furthermore, with this rule, and unlike before, FIFA will not punish Santos in any way. In case it can be clearly shown that the Brazilian team has motivated him to break his contract during this protected period. Only in that hypothetical case would he be punished by two windows without signing.
And at the time Neymar made that decision, in the absence of determining the corresponding compensation corresponding to Saudi Arabian law until they reach an agreement, Al Hilal will have a maximum of 72 hours to provide the transfer to the player to play in his home country.
