Brazilian soccer player Neymar drew attention for his impressive athletic abilities at an early age. As a teenager, he emerged as a star for Santos FC, winning four straight Player of the Year awards while becoming one of Brazil’s most popular public figures. Neymar leaped to Europe to join FC Barcelona for the start of the 2013-14 season and became a mainstay for a club that claimed numerous titles, both domestic and international.
After leading the Brazilian men to their first Olympic gold medal in 2016, the star forward transferred to France’s Paris Saint-Germain the following year. He now plays for Al-Hilal, a Saudi Arabian club after signing a 2-year deal worth $300 million guaranteed.
Neymar signed a two-year contract to join Al-Hilal, a Saudi Arabian club, completing a deal with Paris Saint-Germain that first surfaced on August 13. The 31-year-old forward played for PSG for six seasons. “I am here in Saudi Arabia, I am HILALI,” Neymar posted on his social media accounts on August 15.
