Neymar and Santos fans ran parallel. Neymar posted on his social media page that `I never argued with fans in the stadium. It's a place where fans express their opinions. But you can't call me names like that. Call me and my father mercenaries, and I can't insult my family and friends. It's hard for me to put up with myself in this situation.
Santos supporters also issued a statement saying 'You are our idol. Then act like an icon. A fan replied to you and your family by saying 'Those who reveal only money' that 'you can make more money elsewhere', which everyone knows. Now, after years of suffering, fans are crying out to our icon, you, to lead this anxious team. Would you turn a blind eye to the appeal?'
