1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 13th News Neymar’s father was interviewed by the media a few days ago. He said that he hoped his son would participate in the Club World Cup.
Old Neymar told ESPN: “He has not recovered 100% yet, and it is a pity that he decided not to participate. I really want to see him debut in this first Club World Cup, but everything will be fine.”
Talking about Neymar’s future, Neymar made it clear that the decision is entirely in the hands of his son: “The future? We are evaluating, mainly respecting his opinion. Neymar’s own choice.”
Early, Fruminense chairman Mario Bitencourt revealed to the podcast show Setor Sul that he had tried to operate Neymar to join on loan to compete in the Club World Cup. He emphasized that the plan is not to let the players leave Santos, but to facilitate the cooperation of the two clubs so that the superstar can return to Santos after representing Fruminense.
Bitencourt said at the time: “To be honest, Renato Gaucho (Frumenense coach) has a close personal relationship with Neymar. When I asked for his opinion, he immediately contacted Neymar. The player himself was humble and polite, and suggested that we communicate with his father. I had obtained the authorization of Chairman Santos in advance. Although Neymar’s father did not directly agree, he expressed his willingness to listen. This idea is purely for the Club World Cup.”
“He showed great cultivation, saying that he felt honored and yearned for participation, but his career planning needed to use this month to prepare for physical fitness. At present, the goal is to recover through the rest period.”
