Neymar Jr has reportedly been given the sum of £846million by an unidentified deceased Brazilian billionaire.
The businessman allegedly decided to give part of his money to Neymar Jr because he ‘identifies with him on a personal level and the will was formalised at an office in Porto Alegre and authenticated on June 12 with two witnesses allegedly present.

A Brazilian billionaire has reportedly left his entire will to Neymar despite the pair allegedly having never met one another.

Neymar, 33, is claimed to have been given the enormous sum of £846million by an unidentified deceased man from Brazil who is said to have been a billionaire.

According to Brazilian outlet RIC, the will was formalised at an office in Porto Alegre and authenticated on June 12 with two witnesses allegedly present.

The matter is now purportedly subject to clearance from Brazilian courts if Neymar is to be named as the individual’s heir – who has potentially chosen him because he is reportedly childless and single.

Neymar has not publicly commented on reports surrounding the fortune – but the will could be subject to legal complications even if it is approved.

The businessman allegedly opted to give it to Neymar because he ‘identifies with [him] on a personal level, per local media reports.

He is said to admire Neymar’s tight family bonds, especially the player’s relationship with his dad, Neymar Sr., which ‘reminds him of his own late father’.

The winger is now back in Brazil, having opted to return to his boyhood club Santos in January following an ill-fated spell with Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal.

He scored three goals in 14 appearances during the second half of the 2024-25 campaign – having previously netted 136 goals in 225 games in his first spell at the club from 2009 to 2013.

In June, he chose to renew his contract with Santos, potentially paving a pathway for him to feature for the Selecao at next year’s World Cup.

In a statement posted on the club’s website, he said: ‘I made a decision and I listened to my heart.

‘Santos is not just my team, it is my home, my roots, my history and my life.

‘Here I was a boy who became a man, and I am truly loved. Here I can be myself, truly happy. And it is here that I want to fulfil the dreams that are missing in my career.

‘And nothing will stop me. I go, I come back and I stay. Where it all began and where it will never end.’

He will be hoping for a sustained spell in Santos’ team having struggled with injuries during his 18-month spell in Saudi Arabia.

He has not played for Brazil since suffering an an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury back in October 2023, but remains his country’s record goalscorer with 79 goals.
