Neymar, who was sidelined due to injury for the entire season, emerged as a champion, surpassing five other superstars!
Neymar declared himself out for the season since October last year, yet Al Hilal Riyadh managed to secure 34 consecutive victories without him, setting a historic record in football!

Despite Neymar’s direct involvement in only two victories, he witnessed Al Hilal Riyadh’s triumph over Al-Ittihad at the end of the match and lifted the trophy amidst the cheers of his teammates!

It must be said that sometimes, the choice matters more than the effort. Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr was eliminated by Al Hilal Riyadh in the semifinals;
while Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami was halted in the quarterfinals of the US Cup.
These two legendary figures, after leaving Europe, have only won one championship between them.
Neymar 5 games and 1 won trophy
On the UEFA Champions League stage, the trio of emerging stars—Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, and Jude Bellingham, each valued at €180 million—also struggled, with their respective teams failing to secure victories in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.
