Neymar's move to Saudi Arabia further increased his already impressive net worth, making him one of the wealthiest athletes in the world. His elegance on the pitch has transferred to his impressive bank balance, with only Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi having a higher net worth than him. Despite his move to Saudi Arabia, Neymar still has many years left in his career, and it remains to be seen if he will move again in the future to a top European league where he could continue to perform at a high level.
Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior, better known by the singular name of Neymar , is one of the best players in the world and an icon of Brazilian football. Starting his career with Santos , the boy wonder soon caught the eye of all of European football’s big hitters. Barcelona eventually won the race for his services, with Neymar joining the Catalan club in 2013 at the tender age of 21.
He was world-class at Barcelona, partnering with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez to form 'MSN'; it was one of the most formidable attacks in the history of the sport, seeing them win the Champions League in 2015. However, he wasn't happy as Messi continued to take the spotlight. With the Brazilian wanting to be the main superstar, he completed a blockbuster world-record £198 million transfer to PSG in 2017, where he remained until the summer of 2023, before joining Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.
Due to his success on - and off - the pitch, Neymar has built up incredible wealth under his name. .
