Neymar does not rule out retirement: "I don't know what's going to happen"

N eymar Jr.'s future is uncertain. The shadow of retirement is beginning to loom large and the Brazilian star himself does not rule out hanging up his boots . In an interview with ' CazeTV ', Neymar considered the possibility of bringing his playing days to an end at the end of the year , always listening to what "the heart dictates".

"I don't know what is going to happen from now on, I don't know what will happen next year. It may be that December comes and I want to retire . Now I'm living year by year. This year is very important for Santos and for the Brazilian national team, because of the World Cup, so for me it is also a very big challenge," said Neymar.

I may reach December and want to retire

"I wanted to play again this season 100%, that's why I kept myself in some games, I took care of myself a little more. I know that many people say a lot of nonsense, but they do not know what happens on a day-to-day basis, they do not know how it is. Santos did a very good planning, it helped me a lot in that sense. Obviously I wanted to come back to help my team in the best possible way, but I ended up waiting a bit to come back 100%, without pain, without fear, without anything and I managed to come back very well in this last game," said the Brazilian.

"With a lot of training, with a lot of perseverance, which is what moves us, I will be able to reach my 100%. That's what I want, that's what I told them. So I'm living year by year, I don't know what's going to happen from now on, I don't know next year; it may be that December comes and I want to retire, I don't know. It will be what my heart dictates ," Neymar Jr. concluded.
