Neymar’s Return to Santos FC
Neymar is leaving Saudi Arabia, returning to Brazil to play for his childhood club, where he first rose to prominence, aiming for the 2026 World Cup.
It sounds like a Netflix documentary: Neymar has signed a six-month contract with Santos, with an option to extend.
Sports Value recently conducted a comparison between Santos’ situation when Neymar stayed until his 2013 move to Barcelona and the club’s current reality.
Santos Futebol Clube is the ninth-largest club in Brazil in terms of fan base. However, between 2011 and 2013, it ranked second in media exposure and sponsorship revenue, just behind Corinthians following Ronaldo Fen?meno’s impact.
Despite having fewer supporters, Santos outperformed Flamengo, Palmeiras, and S?o Paulo in sponsorship deals during that period.
In 2023, Santos earned US$ 16 million from commercial revenues During Neymar’s peak years at the club—when the dollar was much weaker—annual marketing revenue reached US$ 45 million.
In the post-Neymar decade, the sports market has expanded significantly, but Santos lost space to other competitors.
The return of their idol, wearing Pelé’s legendary No. 10 jersey, could boost Santos’ revenue significantly.
