About Neymar

Official performance data ranked him as one of the top two players in Europe for five consecutive seasons from 2015–16 to 2019–20, ranking as the best player in 2016–17 and 2017–18. Neymar made his professional debut with Santos in 2009 and soon emerged as a teenage sensation. In 2011, he led Santos to the Copa Libertadores title and was named the tournament's best player. Neymar joined Barcelona in 2013, where he was part of the MSN attacking trio alongside Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez. He finished as the joint top scorer in the UEFA Champions League and the joint top scorer in the Copa del Rey as Barcelona completed the continental treble in 2014–15. At the age of 23, Neymar was viewed as one of the world's three best players, alongside Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. In 2017, Neymar joined Paris Saint-Germain in a world-record €222 million transfer that made him one of the world's highest-paid sportsmen. However, his time at the club was largely affected by injuries. Despite this, he was particularly influential to Ligue 1 title wins in 2017–18, 2019–20 and 2022–23, but finished as Champions League runners-up with PSG in 2020. In 2020–21, Neymar became the first player to score 20 goals in the Champions League with two different clubs.
