😉 Neymar jokes with Ancelotti, vows to deliver sixth title | OneFootball

After being decisive on the field to save Santos from relegation in the Brasileirão, Neymar has a clear goal for 2026: to play in the World Cup. 

So much so that, this Saturday (20), while attending a show by singer and "buddy" Thiaguinho in São Paulo, the number 10 of Peixe joked with coach Carlo Ancelotti in the form of a message.

- We are going to do everything possible and impossible to bring the (World Cup) trophy to Brazil. In July, you can hold me to it. Hey, Ancelotti, help us out!

Fighting against serious and recurring injuries, Neymar has not yet been called up by Ancelotti for the Brazilian National Team.

In press conferences, the Italian coach has made it clear that he will only call Neymar when he is 100% physically fit.

The number 10 star's contract with Santos ends at the end of 2025, but the board of the São Paulo club remains optimistic about renewing the deal for at least another six months.

Still in 2025, Neymar will undergo surgery on his left knee after injuring his meniscus at the end of the Brasileirão.

The recovery period is approximately one month.
