Neymar actually cost PSG €252m - report

Neymar may have left Barcelona over a year ago now, but the fallout over his transfer still continues to make headlines.

The latest leak comes from Der Spiegel who reckon that PSG actually spent a whopping €252 million to bring the Brazilian to Paris.

His €222m release clause was paid, but PSG also splashed out €10.7m in commission to Pini Zahavi and the same amount to other representatives.

Neymar’s former club Santos were also winners in the deal. They were due five per cent of the deal and ended up with €8.7m.

PSG may feel it’s money well spent.
