Puskás meeting: Borges visits Santos, snaps photo with Neymar | OneFootball

Santos’ training session this Friday featured a special guest. Former striker Borges visited the CT Rei Pelé.

The former Peixe player posed for a photo with Neymar, which was shared on the social media accounts of the São Paulo club.

The two played together between 2011 and 2012 and formed a successful duo. Their partnership resulted in 52 goals, with Borges scoring 24 and Neymar 28. In fact, one of the current Santos number 10’s goals earned him the Puskás Award.

In a match against Flamengo at Vila Belmiro in 2011, Neymar exchanged passes with Borges and made history by scoring the most beautiful goal of that year.

Borges retired in 2016. He wore the Santos jersey 58 times and found the net on 31 occasions. The former striker also played for São Paulo, Grêmio, Cruzeiro, Ponte Preta, América-MG, and other clubs.
