Neymar is expected to make his long-awaited return to the pitch in the upcoming third round fixture of the 2025 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, where Santos face Fluminense.
The Brazilian superstar, whose winter return to Santos stunned the football world, has missed the first two league matches of the season due to ongoing recovery from injury. However, his comeback is now imminent.
With Neymar's current contract running until June 30, he theoretically has up to 10 games left to play in this stint with the club — offering fans a final chance to see him in action in the iconic black and white shirt.
