Neymar’s father has pleaded with his son to continue playing football despite Brazil’s shock exit from the FIFA 2026 World Cup, insisting the former Seleção captain still has more to offer the game.
Brazil’s campaign came to a heartbreaking end after a 2-1 Round of 16 defeat to Norway, prompting Neymar to announce his retirement from international football.
In an emotional public message, Neymar’s father encouraged his son to remain strong, continue his club career, and build on an already remarkable legacy.
“My request to you, Ney: keep playing football, please,” Neymar’s father said.
He urged the Brazilian icon not to allow the disappointment of the World Cup to mark the end of his journey in the sport, expressing confidence that he could return stronger despite bringing his international career to a close.
