In a recent development, Neymar's family company, NR Sports, has played a pivotal role in lifting Santos out of a FIFA registration ban that had been imposed due to financial disputes with AS Monaco. Monaco had reported Santos to FIFA in 2025 following Peixe's failure to pay the remaining €2 million installment for the permanent transfer of Brazilian midfielder Jean Lucas.
FIFA had given Santos a deadline of three months and 15 days to settle the outstanding debt, including an additional €32,876 in interest, or face a ban on registering new players.
However, Neymar's family company stepped in to alleviate the situation. According to ESPN, NR Sports paid off Santos' €2 million debt to Monaco, thereby lifting the transfer ban on the Brazilian club. Neymar returned to his boyhood club, Santos, in January 2025 and contributed to the team's successful effort in avoiding relegation during the previous season.
