Al-Hilal are considering a mutual termination of Neymar Jr's £130million-per-year deal in January in a bid to offload his wages-six months before the end of his contract.

The 32-year-old has suffered a nightmare with injuries in the Saudi Pro League amid his exit in the new year. The former Barcelona and PSG attacker returned for Al-Hilal last month following a year-long absence, after tearing his ACL in his left knee while playing for Brazil last October.

Neymar suffered a setback to his comeback on Monday having been forced off 29 minutes after coming on as a substitute in Al-Hilal's Asian Champions League win over Esteghlal.

According to the Daily Mail, the Brazilian is set for a spell on the sidelines despite the player himself suggesting that it was just a cramp of his right thigh. Al-Hilal's decision to cut losses with the former Santos player as soon as possible suggest their doubts on the role of Neymar in the squad. 

Neymar is currently one of eight foreign players over the age of 21 in the Al-Hilal squad, putting the club at their limit of overseas imports under Saudi Pro League rules. The remaining seven players have become key parts of the squad in Neymar’s absence, leaving the Brazilian’s future in doubt.

A termination of his contract would offer Neymar the opportunity to return to Brazil, where he has been linked with rejoining Santos, where he made his breakthrough.
