Listen to the story

Brazilian football star Neymar, aged 34, could be leaving his club Santos, according to news reports.

There are signs that his relationship with Santos has become difficult recently.

Reports suggest Neymar might move to Inter Miami, a club in the United States.

If this move happens, he could play alongside former teammates Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez again.

Together, the three players used to be known as "MSN," a famous attacking trio from their time at Barcelona.

Fans and journalists have started to talk about a possible "reunion" of this trio at Inter Miami.

However, nothing has been officially confirmed about a transfer yet.

Neymar himself has spoken about his future in football, but without giving clear details.

He said he has not yet decided whether to continue his career or retire from the sport.

According to reports, Neymar said, "I really haven't decided anything yet."

This suggests that his next move, whether staying, transferring, or retiring, is still uncertain.

Fans of Neymar, as well as supporters of Inter Miami, are waiting to hear more news.
