He's just saying what he knows the Santos supporters want to hear.
I imagine it's far more likely that he'll be used as a makeweight in one of our summer deals, than us allowing him to stay at Santos for another season. IIRC he signed a three year contract with us, so he'll be entering the final year of it next season. It would be bad business to let him run it down and fuck off for free.
4 year contract, so he'll still have another 2 at the end of this one.
What he needs to remember is that we own him during his prime, and we can rob him of the chance of playing during that time.
Time he showed City a bit more respect tbh.
