The Brazilian international is poised to sign a £2.5 million per week contract with the Saudi Pro League club, who previously attempted and failed to get Kylian Mbappe. At his new team, he will be joined by former Premier League players Kalidou Koulibaly and Ruben Neves.

It ends his six-year connection with PSG, which he joined in a world record contract in 2017. The 31-year-old, who won the Champions League with Barcelona in 2015, was unable to win the top European trophy with the French club.

Neymar joins a club that is off to a winning start this season. In their first game in this season's Saudi Pro League, they defeated Abha 3-1, with another Brazilian, Malcom, scoring all three goals.
