The Staggering Figure Neymar Has Earned in the Saudi Pro League Since Leaving PSG
One year ago, Neymar left Paris Saint-Germain to join Al Hilal in the Saudi Pro League, and the Brazilian star has been raking in the big bucks ever since. The staggering figure? A whopping £143.1 million!
Al Hilal paid a staggering £86.3 million to sign Neymar from PSG, with the French club likely taking a significant loss on the £200 million they paid for him in 2017. But Neymar’s move was reportedly motivated by his desire to challenge himself in a new league and test his abilities against top-class opposition.
Fast forward to today, and it’s clear that Neymar’s decision has paid off, both on and off the pitch. Despite rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament last October, the 32-year-old is expected to return to action in September, and his absence has been felt at Al Hilal.
Neymar’s Saudi Adventure
While Neymar’s time at Al Hilal has been marked by injury setbacks, he’s still managed to earn a significant amount of money. According to reports, the former Barcelona superstar rakes in £2.65 million per week, making him one of the highest-paid players in the world.
But what’s perhaps more surprising is that Neymar’s wages have largely been unaffected by his lack of playing time. Despite featuring just five times for Al Hilal, the star forward has still managed to pocket a staggering £143.1 million, thanks to his lucrative contract.
So, what’s the takeaway from this astronomical figure? It’s clear that Neymar’s move to Al Hilal has been a shrewd business move, both for the player and the club. While his on-field performances may have been limited, his off-field earnings have been nothing short of remarkable.
