Despite a massive paycheck, Brazilian superstar Neymar Jr. is yet to make a massive impact on Al-Hilal. The player has made one appearance for the side following his move. The Brazilian was subbed in during the 64th minute of the game against Al Riyadh. While Neymar made two assists for the side in a 6-1 rout, he will have a lot to do in the coming games.

However, Neymar’s plans could take a massive bump following some upsetting news.
