Neymar choses Santos and signed a five year deal

Neymar, the Brazilian striker whose exceptional qualities attracted a lot of interest from the main European football clubs decided to remain in Brazil for now and signed a five year deal with the Santos club.

The 18-year old player was able to resist the temptation of joining world class teams, like Chelsea and took the advice of Brazilian legend Pele, who suggested that he should stay in Brazil, at least for a few more years.

Brazil’s new national team’s coach Mano Menezes had the same advice for the young talent. During the announcement of his decision, Neymar stated that he is happy with his actual status and that even if it was one of the most complicated decisions of his life, he will still choose happiness over money.

Europeans first got a glimpse of what Neymar was capable of one month ago, when he scored in the game against the United States.
