Following his team's 9-0 goal fest against Al Fateh, Jorge Jesus confirmed that Neymar will not be registered for the second half of the season in the Saudi Pro League.

"The Saudi Arabian league is among the best leagues in the world. All players from Al Hilal can play for any club in Europe. Neymar is no longer at the level we are used to. Unfortunately, things have become difficult for him," the Portuguese coach explained the decision.

“He is still under contract with Al Hilal, and it is up to him to decide about his future. [...] We have a spot on the list reserved for a player born in 2003 or later.”

With these statements, a winter transfer for the 32-year-old has certainly not become less realistic. Recently, there has been contact with the MLS club Chicago Fire.
