Addressing the recent rumors, Pereira said, “Neymar will not be joining Palmeiras; this club isn’t a medical department. I want a player who can contribute right away, someone who can play tomorrow if the manager calls for it. I won’t accept signing a player who’s not fit to play.”

These remarks come after Neymarโ€™s recent injury struggles. The 32-year-old Brazilian, currently playing for Al-Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, has faced ongoing fitness issues throughout his career. Most recently, he suffered a hamstring injury during Al-Hilal’s Asian Champions League victory over Esteghlal on November 4, forcing him off the pitch after just 29 minutes.

This setback followed his return from a year-long recovery from an ACL tear in his left knee, sustained during international duty with Brazil.

Neymar’s ongoing injury troubles have limited him to just seven appearances for Al-Hilal, during which he has scored one goal and provided three assists since joining the club in 2023.

Given Palmeirasโ€™ desire to sign players who can make an immediate impact, the idea of adding Neymarโ€”who is sidelined until at least mid-Decemberโ€”was deemed impractical.
