Neymar linked to Juventus after Gleison Bremer’s bold call
Juventus centre-back Gleison Bremer has openly asked Santos star Neymar to join him in Turin, adding new talk about the forward’s future. Neymar, 33, is now back at his first club after a poor run with Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia.
He first signed a six-month deal with Santos, planning to return to Europe this summer, but later chose to stay until the end of the Brazilian season. Reports now indicate that tensions have escalated, paving the way for a possible early exit.
Recent talk linked Neymar with a move to Marseille, but the French club rejected those claims as 'complete nonsense'. Still, the Brazilian’s name continues to draw interest from European teams.
Juventus is the latest to be named, with comparisons made to Cristiano Ronaldo’s 2018 move to the club at the same age. Any deal, however, would probably need sponsor support to cover the costs.
Speaking to Gazzetta dello Sport, Bremer shared his excitement about the thought of playing with Neymar, saying, 'Of course! It would be great to have someone like Ney here at Juve.'
The defender also spoke about teammate Douglas Luiz’s situation. The midfielder missed the start of pre-season without permission but has since said sorry to the club and teammates.
While Juventus isn’t actively trying to sign Neymar right now, the chance to bring him back to the Champions League remains an exciting thought. It keeps fans hopeful for a possible huge signing.
