The Kings Cup has began today with the Round of the 32, those clubs that achieve a victory today will advance to the next Round of 16, just like Al-Hilal did with today’s 1-0 win over Al-Jabalain that represented no any harm for Jorge Jesus’s team, nevertheless, the big absence of the match was Neymar Jr.

The Brazilian striker hasn’t been a ke playmaker since his arrival to the Saudi Pro League, actually, his stats are lower than ever, as he only has one assist in two played games and his relationship with Al-Hilal’s manager, Jorge Jesus, is broken as he demanded the clubs executives to fire the head coach.

Nevertheless, Neymar Jr. performance inside and outside the pitch has let down many Al-Hilal’s fans and even his own fans, as the Brazilian striker hasn’t done anything at all in the Saudi Pro League but to charge his professional fees and party out with models, exposing his infidelity on Bruna Biancardi, Neymar’s wife and mother of his second child.

Neymar Jr. signed with Al-Hilal and it was meant to be the signing of the year, as they paid over 222 million euros to the Paris-Saint-Germain for his transfer and he has been granted a two year deal contract for 100 million dollars per year in order to help Al-Hilal conquer once again the Saudi Pro League.

Neymar’s performance

Although Al-Hilal is in second place of the standings in the MidWest tournament, trailing behind Al-Ittiad for just one point, the truth is that Neymar Jr. hasn’t contributed anything to the team but controversies. Neymar's stats are on the ground, with just two played games, one assist and two yellow cards, but his fortune has been the only thing  that has seemed to increase .

Let’s put Cristiano Ronaldo as the counterpart. The Portuguese astro arrived earlier than Neymar to the Saudi Pro League, this being the first European player to sign in the Saudi Arabia League, everybody thought Ronaldo wouldn’t increase his level and performance with Al-Nassr, but the truth is that Cristiano is seeing his best year.

Cristiano Ronaldo has helped Al-Nassr to be in the spot again, with his help he has contributed to the undefeated winning streak the team has, and even Ronaldo has set a new record as the top scorer of the Saudi Pro League 2023/2024 season with nine goals made in seven games, and he has an overall of 37 goals since his arrival in 2022.
