Atlas failed to come back against Cruz Azul and was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Liga MX after losing 2-4 in the global score in the Liguilla. The team led by Diego Cocca changes owners for the next tournament with the sale of Grupo Orlegi to José Miguel Bejos and the uncertainty about the team's future is raised. But a good news could appear for the red and black fans after the elimination and for the 2026 Apertura with the new owners: Neymar as a bomb signing. The information about the Brazilian has been circulating in the Mexican football press for several days and it seems that the possibility does not fade away for the club. According to Paco González's information, present in the Cruz Azul - Atlas transmission for TUDN USA, there was a first contact between the two parties. It's not a joke, although it seems like one. Pay attention to what I'm going to say: Neymar's representative approached the new owners of Atlas to offer them Neymar. Pepe Miguel Bejos, who is the new owner of the team, knows what he said? 'It won't be a bad idea to bring Neymar'. Neymar plays for Santos in Brazil, with a contract until December of this year. This summer will be the last opportunity for the Brazilian club to sell him. According to Transfermarkt, Neymar Jr.'s market value is around $12 million. Since 2025, Ney has played 40 games with Santos, scoring 16 goals and seven assists. The Brazilian is in the middle of the controversy for assaulting Robinho's son in a training session with his team.
