Neymar has previously revealed the four Premier League clubs he would sign for amid reports linking him with a move away from Al Hilal.
During the summer of 2023, Neymar was one of many big-name players who moved to the Saudi Professional League from Europe.
The Brazilian completed his move from Paris Saint Germain to Al Hilal for a reported fee of €90 million.

Joining Neymar were the likes of Karim Benzema, Fabinho, Roberto Firmino and Riyad Mahrez.
After suffering multiple injury problems, it was recently reported that Neymar could be offloaded by Al Hilal.
Back when he was at Barcelona, Neymar once named four clubs that he admired in the Premier League.

He said: "The Premier League is a championship that amazes me. I like the playing style and the teams. And who knows? Someday, I would like to play [in] it, yes. I admire Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool - these are the teams that are always there fighting."
Speaking back in June, ex-Gunners star Gilberto Silva named Arsenal as a potential destination for Neymar.
He said: "I’d love to see Neymar in the Premier League with Arsenal, it would be interesting that’s for sure.
"It would bring a lot of joy to fans and make the competition even more special. When you look at the Premier League, we want to see the best players in the world and to have him around would be great."

Silva added: "Let's see. It's not impossible that he could join Arsenal, why not."
Recently, Neymar's long-awaited comeback was halted after he was taken off during Monday's win over Esteghlal FC.
The forward was brought on in the 58th minute by Al Hilal boss Jorge Jesus but was then forced off just 29 minutes after entering the fray. Neymar was visibly upset when the camera captured him on the bench.

On Wednesday, Al Hilal confirmed Neymar had suffered a hamstring tear.
A statement read: "The scans revealed that Neymar Jr. has suffered a tear in his hamstring. He will undergo a treatment and rehabilitation program that will last from four to six weeks."
