I am not sure what's the state of their academy. I think they are still known for the place to go if you're a player with flair. But if you're a youth player right now, Palmeiras is the place you want to be as they've built a great program.

Santos are in trouble because they will lose a lot of TV revenue in Serie B. Back a few years ago they'd still get similar TV money in Serie B but that has changed. They also had already gotten TV revenue in advance earlier this season or last to float the club. Word is they don't have money to play workers, staff and players this final month of payroll. They will have to sell players to keep the club afloat and buyers will lowball them because they know their financial situation.

What Santos really needs is for someone to buy them to take them private. The speculation is that Neymar will be doing that at some point a bit like R9 did with Cruzeiro. Although it would probably be his father who sort of operates things. I can't see Neymar being that much involved other than using his money and name as he is the type of guy who will just want to enjoy life after he retires.
