Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal have agreed a deal with Paris Saint-Germain to sign Neymar

Neymar will earn £129.4m a year in Saudi; PSG will receive £86.3m for the Brazilian – having paid £200m for him in 2017; move continues turbulent summer in Paris, with Lionel Messi leaving for Inter Miami and the high-profile stand-off with Kylian Mbappe

The Brazil international, who is set to sign a two-year deal, is undergoing his medical today and is expected to complete his move in the next 48 hours.

Sources close to PSG, who have been open to selling Neymar for the past three windows, say the club are set to receive up to £86.3m for a player that cost them a world-record £200m from Barcelona in 2017.

At 31, Neymar is not considered a key player by new PSG head coach Luis Enrique and have been open to selling the forward in order to focus on forming a younger, hungrier team.

According to Sky Sports News’ Kaveh Solhekol, Neymar will earn £129.4m a year in Saudi Arabia – six times the amount he was on at PSG.

Al Hilal have also tried to sign Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe this summer.

However, Messi opted to join Inter Miami, while Mbappe is set to stay at PSG.
