Neymar has joined the list of world-class players who decided to take their talents to the Middle East. The Brazilian superstar joined Saudi Arabian outfit Al-Hilal, leaving Paris Saint-Germain after six years.

This transfer would have taken everyone by surprise if it weren’t for all the stars who have previously moved to the Gulf State. Cristiano Ronaldo was the first to shock the world in January 2023, joining Al-Nassr after the World Cup.

Since then, countless world-renowned players have joined the Saudi Pro League. At 31, Neymar will try a new experience in his career after a successful tenure in the Old Continent. Of course, he’ll see plenty of money come his way.

Neymar’s contract at Al-Hilal

According to transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano, PSG received nearly €100 million for Neymar’s transfer to Al-Hilal. The Saudi Arabian club, meanwhile, has reportedly handed the Brazilian a lucrative deal.
