Neymar Jr. is now a part of the influx of European players to Saudi Arabia. However, his six years with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) remain in the fan’s memories, but for different reasons, for his former neighbors. During his time at PSG, his extravagant parties became a point of contention for his neighbors, who were not particularly pleased with the noise. Surprisingly, the city mayor has recently come to his defense.

During his tenure with PSG, Neymar resided in a lavish house in the charming neighborhood of Bougival. Known for his love for partying, the Brazilian superstar frequently organized extravagant gatherings that caused discomfort for neighbors. So much so, that they are glad that the 31-year-old left to live in Riyadh following his Al Hilal deal. Yet, some of his fans are loyal!

In a recent interview with L’Equipe, the city mayor revealed another side of the coin. He clarified, “I live opposite, so I had a front-row seat to appreciate the quality of the nuisance. There weren’t that many big parties, but three really: one to celebrate a championship title, another for the Brazilian elections, and one for his birthday.”

He further asserted, “It bothered the immediate neighbors, but there’s another celebrity not far away who also organizes them from time to time.”

Furthermore, the comparison drawn between Neymar and another celebrity in the vicinity, who also occasionally organized such events, conveyed the notion that these gatherings were not uncommon in the neighborhood. Nonetheless, Neymar has now moved on from this neighborhood. In light of this, let’s look at the opulent residence in Riyadh received as a part of his contract.

The luxurious side of Neymar and Al Hilal’s deal

Neymar signed a remarkable deal worth $418 million to join Al Hilal. In addition to this substantial sum of money, he also received a magnificent mansion. The mansion possesses an impressive 25 bedrooms and boasts a sprawling pool that stretches 10 meters wide and 40 meters long. It also includes a luxurious sauna for ultimate relaxation. In order to keep up with the maintenance of such a magnificent house, a team of five dedicated staff members is employed on-site.

Furthermore, Neymar received a fleet of high-end cars. This exclusive collection consists of three luxury vehicles and four G-Wagons, all accompanied by his very own personal driver. Given the magnitude and extravagance of this agreement, it comes as no surprise that Neymar decided to move to Al-Hilal.
