Considering that Neymar earns R$820 per minute, in this debut game for Al Hilal alone he earned R$78,720
In the 17th minute of the second half, Al Hilal was leading 2 x 0 once morest Al-Riyadh, this Friday (15), by “Sauditão”, when coach Jorge Jesus called Neymar, who was on the bench, to enter the place of short Michael, former Flamengo player (featured photo).
Ready! Neymar’s history in Saudi Arabian football officially began. A millionaire story, let’s say, because the Brazilian star signed a contract to earn 80 million euros (R$430 million) per year.
These calculations have been made many times by the media, but it is worth remembering that “boy Ney” will be entitled to a salary of almost R$1.2 million per day. Or R$820 per minute, sleeping or awake, playing or not.
So, to illustrate financially how Neymar’s debut for Al Hilal was, let’s consider that, this Friday, the former PSG player was involved in his work for 96 minutes (including stoppage time), even while he was sitting on the bench of reserves, and earned the equivalent of R$78,720.00.
It’s nothing, it’s nothing, but this amount is equivalent to almost double the salary of a Senator of the Republic, which is R$44,008.52. Multiplied by two, it would be just over R$88 thousand.
Media phenomenon
While here in Brazil some commentators insinuated that “Sauditão” seems more like a match between singles and married couples (yes, the technical level for now is more like society football), Neymar’s debut caused a stir in the international media.

In Portugal, the newspaper “A Bola” headlined: “Hurricane Neymar is already wreaking havoc in Saudi Arabia”.
In Spain, the daily Marca made puns regarding the number 10’s first assists: “Neymar distributed gifts in Saudi”.
And in Italy, the “Gazzetta dello Sport” said that the star put on an “immediate show” at Al Hilal.
This is exactly why the Arab princes pay exorbitant salaries to all the world football stars who are being “recruited” by them.
