Al-Hilal and Brazil star Neymar Jr. is widely considered one of the best footballers in the world and the best Brazilian player of his generation.
Neymar has been involved in three notable transfers. He initially moved from his childhood club, Santos FC, to Spanish powerhouse FC Barcelona in 2013, then transferred to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, and most recently joined Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal in August.
The forward's move to PSG is the most expensive in football history, with the French club paying a staggering $240 million transfer fee for his services. Altogether, all his transfers amount to a ridiculous $400 million, the most ever by a player.
Neymar has netted over 100 goals for three different clubs, placing him among the select group of players to accomplish this remarkable milestone.
After more than a decade under the microscope as one of the most skilled and technically gifted players in football, many are asking: What is Neymar's net worth in 2023?
Neymar Jr.'s Net Worth 2023: $250 Million
The 31-year-old Neymar Jr. is worth $250 million as of 2023, according to multiple sources such as Celebrity Net Worth, Market Realist, and MySoccerHouse.
The current Al-Hilal forward was ranked by business and financial outlet Forbes as the 12th highest-paid athlete in the world in 2023, making $85 million over the past year.
The majority of this amount was derived from his salary while he was with Paris Saint-Germain for the 2022-23 season, totaling $50 million, while the remaining $35 million was accumulated through various endorsement deals and sponsorships.
Neymar Jr. is slated to earn $110 million annually, most likely tax-free, as part of his new two-year contract with the Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal, which paid a transfer fee of $98 million to Paris Saint-Germain for his services.
He will also enjoy extra financial incentives, such as an $87,000 bonus for each victory achieved by Al-Hilal and a $545,000 compensation for every social media post or story promoting Saudi Arabia.

Neymar Jr.'s Wealth
Aside from his massive wages over the past few years from PSG and Al-Hilal, the captain of the Brazil national team earns $27 million from the German sportswear brand PUMA, which awarded him the most lucrative individual sponsorship in sports history at the time of its signing in 2020. The length of the deal remains undisclosed.
Before entering into a partnership with PUMA, Neymar Jr. endorsed the American sportswear giant Nike for a yearly sum of $13 million from 2011 to 2020.
Aside from his boot and apparel deal with PUMA, the all-time top scorer of the Brazil national team also has endorsement deals with sports streaming service DAZN, video game developers Epic Games and Konami, sports betting provider Flutter Entertainment, social media company Meta, streaming giant Netflix, Qatar Airways, Qatar National Bank, and sports energy drink Red Bull.
