On 8 February 2021, Neva renewed his link with the Nazaríes until 2025. He remained a starter for the side during the following years, suffering relegation in 2021–22 but immediately returning in 2022–23; during the latter season, he scored his first professional goal, netting his team's only in a 3–1 away loss against Levante UD on 14 January 2023.
