We loved Neymar when he was at his best at Barcelona. Then the Brazilian made the decision to follow the money trail to Paris and leave Messi, Alba, Busquets and Suarez. Since then, there has been more noise and less world-class performance. Then the Brazilian followed the next money trail to the “Ronaldo League”. Now another club is willing to fill up Neymar’s money bin.
Neymar have given his Saudi Arabian club 7 games and 1 goal for the approx. 210 million euros they have paid so far to the Brazilian. In recent months, the injured Neymar has been linked with a return to Brazilian football, but Swiss Sky Sports reports Neymar is ready to reunite with the Barcelona gang in Miami.
Al-Hilal who pays Neymar over €1 million a week plus bonuses and special attendance payments are of course keen to let him go to someone else as soon as possible. Inter Miami has no interest or opportunity to follow up by offering the same. The actual pay cut will be about 90%.
Moreover, now that Saudi Arabia has got the football World Cup in 2036, the money laundering has almost complete and the need for stars like Neymar is less.
Neymar has informed his teammates that he wants to move to MLS club Inter Miami next summer, where former Barcelona stars such as Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi already play.
Messi and Neymar back in the same team? Initially a pipe dream for a bunch of fans around the world, but after following Neymar’s career in recent years, David Beckham and the Inter Miami owners will go on a solid bang. It doesn’t help to have Neymar in the squad when the 32-year-old’s legs can’t handle the strain, even in the Saudi Arabian league.
Neymar has earned himself the nickname “topple peter”.
