The former Barcelona star has been linked with a return to the Brasileiro, but it won't be to Palmeiras.
Leila said: "Neymar will not come to Palmeiras. This club is not a hospital.
"I want players who can come straight away and play tomorrow if the coach wants it. I do not accept that we sign players who are not able to play."
Neymar's deal with Al Hilal does include a 12 month option.
