Neymar’s eye-watering PSG contract leaked as true cost of Brazilian’s transfer from Barcelona is revealed
NEYMAR'S staggering wages have been revealed after his Paris Saint-Germain contract was leaked.
The Brazil star has cost PSG a fortune without even factoring in his huge transfer fee from Barcelona.
Neymar joined the French giants for a world record fee of £198million in 2017 from Barca.
But this was just the start of a monumental outlay from PSG on the Brazil forward.
According to El Mundo, Neymar earns £37m per year for the first five seasons.
If Neymar activates a renewal clause to stay for a sixth year, his salary will rise to an eye-watering £43m.
The entire deal has cost PSG £419m and Neymar will earn a whopping £833,000 per week if he stays for a sixth season.
Neymar's deal highlights PSG's huge expenditure which was dramatically increased by this summer's signing of Lionel Messi.
Messi signed a two-year deal with the club which is set to earn him £92.6m.

The former Barca superstar will receive £650,000 a week on top of his £25m signing on fee.
Neymar's enormous salary at PSG, coupled with Messi's arrival and Kylian Mbappe completes the most expensive attack in world football.
And PSG's unwillingness to sell Mbappe to Real Madrid, despite the forward only having one year left on his contract, underlined money appears no object to the club.
