In an interview with RMC Sport, Neymar Jr (32) has revealed his ‘happiness’ representing Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia. The Brazilian made his high-profile move to the Gulf State in 2023 after leaving Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer after his contract at the Parc des Princes expired.

In recent transfer windows, the 32-year-old is one of several players to swap European football for Saudi Arabia. Neymar represented an ideal opportunity to bring a world star to the Middle Eastern nation due to his availability as a free transfer. Nevertheless, some eyewatering salaries and fees have been paid for stars to play in the Saudi Pro League.

The forward has revealed he is happy in Saudi since swapping PSG for Al Hilal: “I’m really happy here. And all the players who want to come here are surprised by the level or even some very positive aspects of this championship.”

Despite his happiness, it hasn’t been easy for the Brazil international since he arrived in the Saudi top flight. As was the same during his time at PSG, the forward has had a torrid time with injuries. Limited to just 7 appearances for the Saudi Arabian club, the attacker has missed over 60 matches due to injury.

Commenting on his ability to recover from several injuries, Neymar said, “It is a question of mentality. With the right people around to help you, it makes me come back stronger.”
