During his official presentation with Al-Hilal, Neymar congratulated Cristiano Ronaldo for having the courage to sign in Saudi Arabia.
Neymar won’t speak ill of Saudi Arabia. It’s in his contract. The player, freshly arrived at Al-Hilal, expressed his excitement and contentment about joining a new league.
« I’m very excited, very happy to be joining a new league. It’s a new experience, a new challenge. I’m excited to make history. Challenges motivate me, and when you face a new challenge like this, it boosts your self-esteem. I’m here to help the league grow. They’ve already changed a lot by making many signings. Of course, the league will be very competitive, especially after the recruitments they’ve made. I hope our club will have a great season to achieve our goals. I believe competitiveness is important, and that’s why I joined the league. »
Neymar then touched on the topic of CR7 and praised the Portuguese, who was the first star to sign in Saudi Arabia. « Of course, it’s a different change but a new challenge. I believe Cristiano Ronaldo started all of this, and everyone treated him like a madman, this and that. But today you see that the league is growing more and more. »
