Currently, Neymar’s contractual ties with Paris Saint-Germain extend until 2025.

On Sunday, an ESPN report said that the former Barcelona attacker is “close to agreeing personal terms with Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal.”

He became the most expensive footballer ever in 2017 when he made the switch from Barcelona to the French powerhouse PSG for a staggering €222 million.

His tenure in Paris has yielded a collection of five domestic league championships, although the elusive Champions League victory has remained out of reach.

Although still bound by a lucrative four-year agreement, the iconic striker of PSG has been granted authorisation to scout for a fresh team.
