He played for Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain before moving to Saudi Arabia. Since his professional debut for Santos in 2009, Neymar has come a long way. This article talks about Neymar Jr’s net worth and how much he earns at Al Hilal.
Neymar Jr is considered by many to be the third-best player of this generation after Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. The Brazilian started his professional career with Santos. He joined the youth academy in 2003 and broke into the Brazilian club’s first team in 2009. He impressed the world with his talent and quickly gained the interest of some of the biggest teams in the world. While playing for Santos, Neymar came in the top 10 rankings of the 2011 Ballon d’Or, which was an incredible feat.
Many teams tried signing Neymar Jr after watching him play at Santos, but it was Barcelona that eventually got his signature. The Brazilian signed with the Spanish club in 2013 and stayed there till 2017. Neymar, along with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, formed one of the deadliest attacking trios in football history. This trio was called ‘MSN’. While his time at the club was very successful, Neymar decided to move to the French club Paris Saint-Germain in 2017.

Neymar’s move to PSG cost the club a transfer fee of $242 Million. This set the record for the most expensive transfer in history, a record yet to be broken. However, His move to PSG did not go exactly as planned. His career in Ligue 1 was littered with injuries, and Neymar was unable to help PSG achieve the biggest reason they signed him, i.e., to win the Champions League. In 2023, Neymar decided to move again and joined the Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal.
The Brazilian star has played for some of the best teams in the world in his career. He has played for Barcelona in Spain and for PSG in France, and he currently plays for Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia.

It is through various contracts at these clubs and through brand endorsements that Neymar Jr has an estimated net worth of approximately $250 Million as of 2024.
