Sports News] Last week, Neymar, the Brazilian football star, visited his
hometown and watched a match between Santos and Palmeiras. Reports emerged
stating that Neymar plans to return to Brazil in 2025 to continue his football
career and potentially acquire the Santos club. Brazilian media took this
opportunity to calculate Neymar’s overall income throughout his career.
According to their analysis, Neymar has amassed a total earning of $1.01
billion since the beginning of his professional journey. This figure
encompasses his salaries, sponsorship deals, commercial ventures, and other
sources of income. Furthermore, Neymar’s contract with Paris Saint-Germain is
set to expire in June 2025, and he is currently one of the highest-earning
players in the world of football. Forbes magazine estimates that in 2023 alone,
Neymar’s combined salary and business income could reach an astonishing $112
million. Presently, only Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi earn more than
Neymar in the realm of football. Neymar’s financial success is undoubtedly
remarkable.
