Reports are circulating that the Brazilian international soccer star, Neymar da Silva Santos Jr., has accepted a deal to move to French Ligue 1 team Paris Saint Germain. The deal has been reported to be on a five season term, with Paris Saint Germain paying for the players buy-out clause rumoured to be $257mn. Along with Neymar’s expected salary of $36mn if he joins the new club, the total value of the deal will be $500mn, a first in sports history for any one player.
The previous record was held by Manchester United’s signing of Paris Saint Germain’s midfielder Paul Pogba in 2016. That deal was worth a record $116.4mn at the time. The proposed fee would make the Neymar deal worth more than twice the previous record set by Paul Pogba’s move to Manchester United.
Sources familiar to the matter report that both Manchester United and Manchester City were also in the bidding for the Brazilian, however Manchester United were unable to match the amount required by Barcelona’s buy-out fee clause. Manchester City are still reportedly in ongoing talks with Barcelona FC.
The news has sent twitter users into a frenzy, with many angered by the transfer and many others doubting its legitimacy.
Neymar about to ruin his career going to psg
If Neymar joins PSG I will give everyone who retweets this £150. I'm that confident it won't happen.
Neymar was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, where his father was a professional soccer player and nurtured that talent in him. Neymar was offered to play professionally at the age of just 17 for Brazilian Serie A team, Santos FC. During his time at Santos FC, he had helped the club to win two successive Brazilian championships, a Copa do Brazil, and the 2011 Copa Libertadores, Santos’ first continental title since 1963. His abilities and perseverance meant that Neymar was also named the South American Soccer Player of the Year two years in a row. After his performances at the 2012 World Cup, Neymar was offered a contract to play for European champions Barcelona FC. At Barcelona, Neymar continued to show his talent and was paired with Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez to form Barcelona’s attacking line. While playing at the club, he has won the La Liga, the Copa del Rey tournament, and the UEFA Champions League.
