The Brazilian landed a lucrative salary package at Camp Nou and, still just 25, could surpass the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo
Neymar might not have even touched the halfway point in his footballing career but is already among the best-paid and most marketable athletes on the planet.
