Brazilian superstar Neymar is set to partner Alfredo Morelos under former Rangers manager Pedro Caixinha at Brazilian club Santos.
Renowned transfer guru Fabrizio Romano reports on X that the 32-year-old is closing in on an emotional return to his former team on loan from Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal.
In re-joining Santos, where he initially made his name before a marquee move to Barcelona in 2013, Neymar will link up with former Rangers striker Morelos.
The talented winger will also work under ex-Ibrox gaffer Caixinha, who was appointed Santos’ new boss at the beginning of this year.

The addition of a player the stature of Neymar to the ranks will be a colossal boost for the Brazilian club going into 2025.
Caixinha got his reign off to the perfect start last Friday with a 2-1 win over Mirassol, which Morelos played no part in.
The 54-year-old’s spell in Govan was far from successful, but over seven years after his sacking, it now looks like he will get to manage one of world football’s biggest talents.
