World-renowned soccer star Neymar (Al-Hilal) has decided to purchase the island.
The Sun, a British media outlet, reported on the 5th (Korea Standard Time) that “Nayvar is planning to purchase a private island worth 7 million pounds (about 12.4 billion won) off the coast of Brazil.”
Neymar’s attention was drawn to a six-acre (about 7345 pyeong) tropical resort just off Angradus Hayes, a port city southwest of the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro, according to media.
The island has luxurious accommodations, a carp pond, an Indonesian-style main villa, and three small single-story houses. The island, which can accommodate up to 10 guests, is accessible only by boat or helicopter.
The island is originally owned by a Canadian businessman and is valued at 10 million pounds (about 17.7 billion won), but Neymar reportedly expressed his intention to purchase it by lowering the price for a quick sale.
The media claimed that Neymar had formed a real estate empire. According to the media, Neymar owns a luxury mention in Brazil that has a gym, tennis court, sauna, spa and wine cellar.
In addition, according to Brazilian local media, Neymar invested more than 2.5 million pounds (about 4.4 billion won) to purchase a glass palace near Sao Paulo in December 2021. The luxury building is known to have a squash court, a huge swimming pool, an elevator, and a parking lot that can accommodate 20 cars.
Neymar rose to fame by playing for Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) beyond Brazil as a world-class soccer star. Characterized by stellar plays that catch fans’ attention, Neymar was one of the highest paid players in the soccer community, earning a lot of money not only from his club’s salary but also from sponsorship deals. 메이저놀이터
As time passed, Neymar left Europe for the Middle East in exchange for a huge salary. He left PSG for Saudi Arabian Al-Hilal last summer.
At the time, Al Hilal offered Neymar a huge amount of contract details. French media LeTen Sports claimed that the amount that Neymar can earn for two seasons through huge salary and bonuses is actually more than 600 million euros (about 875.8 billion won). This is more than the two-year, 400 million euros (583.9 billion won) of Cristiano Ronaldo (Alnasr), the highest salary in the soccer world.
In addition, the company will have a unique option of receiving 700 million won for every post promoting Saudi Arabia, and will also be provided with a plane to travel around the world and a luxury house that includes butlers. In fact, it can be seen that the Saudi government recruited Neymar.
Neymar, who is on an astronomical salary in Saudi Arabia, was the envy of soccer fans as he showed off his vast fortune to buy an island beyond his luxury mansion.
