What Club Does Neymar Play For?

What Club Does Neymar Play For?

Neymar currently plays for Santos, the Brazilian club he first joined as a teenager. After his contract with Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal was terminated, he rejoined his boyhood club in January 2025, saying "only Santos can give me the love that I need to prepare for the challenges I have in the next few years." 

His path back to Santos passed through some of Europe's biggest clubs. He began at Santos in 2009, moved to Barcelona for a reported €88 million in 2013, then broke the world transfer record in 2017 with a €222 million move to Paris Saint-Germain. He joined Al-Hilal in 2023 for €90 million but managed just one goal and three assists in seven appearances before his departure.

Has Neymar Won a World Cup?

No — Neymar has never won a World Cup. Despite being one of Brazil's most decorated players domestically, the World Cup has been the one trophy that has eluded him. He has, however, won Brazil's first-ever Olympic gold medal at the Rio de Janeiro 2016 Games and powered Brazil to its fourth FIFA Confederations Cup in 2013, winning the Golden Ball as the tournament's most valuable player. 

Injuries have repeatedly disrupted his international career, with 41 injuries and 241 missed matches since leaving Brazil for Europe. At 34, the 2026 World Cup may be his last realistic shot at the trophy that has defined comparisons between him and Brazilian greats like Pelé and Ronaldo.

How Many Goals Does Neymar Have?

As of 2026, Neymar's career goals have reached 491 in 801 official matches for club and country. Internationally, he has scored 79 goals in 128 appearances for Brazil — surpassing Pelé's long-standing national record of 77.

Broken down by club: 136 goals in 225 appearances for Santos in his first spell, 105 goals in 186 appearances for Barcelona, and 118 goals in 173 appearances for PSG — his most prolific spell by goals-per-game ratio.
