New York New Jersey Stadium: Santos has given Neymar time off to contemplate his future after Brazil's World Cup round-of-16 exit, Brazilian media reported on Wednesday.

Brazil's all-time leading scorer has six months left on his Santos contract, but local press has cast doubt over whether he will continue playing at any level following his international retirement.

"Neymar's future at Santos will be decided after a vacation period," the report said, adding Santos was "waiting for a signal" to meet with the forward and his representatives, reports Xinhua.
