Despite signing with Al Hilal in 2023 for a reported fee of £100 million, Neymar has yet to find stability and success in Saudi Arabia. The Brazilian forward, who has been plagued with injuries since joining the team, recently suffered yet another setback that could keep him out of action for a month. With mounting injuries and rumours of an early contract termination, Neymar's future at Al Hilal remains uncertain.
With a perfect record in the AFC Champions League Elite and sitting at the top of Group B, Al Hilal faces a crucial showdown against Al Sadd. The Blue Waves will have to overcome a recent loss in the Saudi Pro League and maintain their momentum to fend off Al Sadd, who are also undefeated in the competition. With the home advantage on their side, Al Sadd hopes to close the gap and dethrone the favourites Al Hilal on Tuesday night.
