Brazilian Star Neymar Faces litigation On All Fronts

By Daily Sports on September 27, 2019

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar, the world’s most expensive player, is embroiled in a string of legal woes with cases in Spain, France and Brazil.

A contract extension bonus Barcelona agreed to give Neymar is at the heart of the legal dispute, which was withheld by the Spanish club following his record-breaking 222-million-euro ($244 million) transfer to Paris Saint-Germain in August 2017.

The case will be heard by a court in the Barcelona suburbs on Friday morning.

The bonus was agreed in the summer of 2016. But when the striker left for PSG barely a year later, Barcelona refused to pay him the outstanding 26 million euros, and demanded he return the sum already received.

The Catalan club also lodged a complaint against the player for breach of contract, demanding 8.5 million euros in damages plus interest.

The Brazilian responded by filing a suit against his former club to demand the payment of the outstanding bonus. (SuperSport)
