Al Hilal’s Neymar Followed Cristiano Ronaldo’s $500,000,000 ‘Time Machine’ at Al Nassr, Says Popular Journalist

Neymar Jr.’s highly anticipated debut for Al Hilal ended with an emphatic performance! He’s been in good nick recently, especially with the national team too. The Brazilian star was among the soccer superstars who had faith in the Middle East project after Cristiano Ronaldo signed for Al Nassr. Meanwhile, a journalist believed that the ex-PSG star’s choice to join the SPL would help him emulate his peak years in European soccer.

Neymar sought to change his fortunes in this later part of his career after a rollercoaster journey with PSG. Unfortunately, that was marred by injury in numerous seasons. However, a renowned reporter just remarked that the gigantic Al Hilal contract might serve as the optimal opportunity for the Brazilian maestro to rejuvenate his goal-scoring prowess to his highest standards.

Popular journalist lauds Al Hilal’s prospect for Neymar

Saudi Arabia emerged as the new mecca for global soccer stars this season. Rafael Reis highly regarded the Al Hilal move. The journalist felt that this prospect might help Neymar re-live the illustrious stint he once delivered in his career. Before the Brazilian star’s debut against Al Riyadh, the well-known journalist said, “After defending the Brazilian team in the opening of the South American qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, Neymar is expected to debut today for Al-Hilal in the hope of having found a ‘time machine’ that will take him back to the best days of his career.”

Interestingly, he compared the move to that of Cristiano Ronaldo. CR7 could replicate the record-breaking performance despite the doubts about his potential after an underwhelming spell at Manchester United. In this instance, Reis added, “After all, that’s exactly what happened to Cristiano Ronaldo, the first global star to embark on Saudi Arabia’s project of becoming the new homeland of world football.”

In the most ideal circumstances, Neymar could finally regain his status as a global icon. The SPL could prove to be a lesser competitive challenge out of the European limelight for the Brazilian soccer icon, giving him the chance to bring back some of his consistent performances as he did six years ago.

The Brazil star’s debut sparks excitement in his soccer dynamics

Rafael Reis felt that Al Hilal could assist the Brazilian forward in re-attaining his remarkable goal-scoring figures. Reis continued, “If he manages to take advantage of the lower technical level of Saudi football to return to the level of performance he had six years ago, as Ronaldo did, Neymar can remember the days when he played like a candidate for the best in the world award.”

Meanwhile, Neymar debuted in the 64 minute as a substitute with his new club. He failed to score his first goal but contributed one assist in a 6-1 victory over Al Riyadh. Did you agree with the renowned reporter’s remark about Neymar? Comment below and let us know.
