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.

Neymar is known for hosting lavish celebrations with big personalities in attendance, inevitably drawing media attention.

“So, who doesn’t like to party? Everyone likes to have fun,” Neymar said.

“I know when I can go, I know when I can do it when I can’t.

“Contrary to what people think, that I’m immature, that I don’t know what I do.”

Neymar, 28, was criticized for staging a week-long New Year’s Eve party for a reported 150 people at his seafront mansion in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, despite a rise in COVID-19 cases.

He added that he does not believe his social life hinders his performances on the pitch and said he needs to blow off some steam from football.

“I’ve been in football for several years, ” he said. “If you stay 100% with your head focused on just playing football, in my opinion, you end up exploding. It is my time to relax, to be calm… I will never stop doing it.”

Former Tottenham coach Mauricio Pochettino, who took over as PSG coach on Jan. 2, was asked if he would give Neymar permission to take part in his sister Rafaella’s birthday party in Brazil on March 11, which the player has attended in previous years.

“We will see when the time comes. When I started coaching, I said to myself that I would be inflexible, and I wouldn’t let anyone go out,” Pochettino said.

“After 12 years coaching, I’ve come to realize how important it is to be flexible and I like to negotiate everything. The new generation likes to give their opinion and to be listened to. You get nothing from imposing things, you have to negotiate.”

Since arriving in August 2017 at the Parc des Princes on a world-record €222 million signing from Barcelona, Neymar has won three Ligue 1 titles, two Coupe de France, two Coupe de la Ligue, two Trouphee des Champions and finished Champions League runner-up.

He has scored 83 goals in 101 appearances with PSG.

That’s the life of a number of top celebrities across the world, from movie and music stars to stars of reality shows.

While many football icons may not have the flashiest social lives, a number of them still dominate the headlines and share the spotlight with their more eccentric colleagues.

Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is in a world on his own when it comes to athletes making the big bucks on Instagram.

Ronaldo pockets an amount of $889,000 anytime he makes a post on the social media site.

The player has made 2,992 posts, as of January 25, 2021, to his page, which is one of the most popular with about 257 million followers.

This tally puts him third on the list of the highest earners behind the actor, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, who makes $1,015,000 per post on the site, and Kylie Jenner who pockets $986,000 for every paid post.

Cristiano Ronaldo is, in fact, the only sports personality in the Top 9 with Brazilian star Neymar edging ahead of Lionel Messi into the Top 10.

Neymar earns $704,000 per paid post while Messi makes $695,000 from his posts.

The popularity of Ronaldo’s account is a prime advertising ground for brands who will now have to fork out close to 1 million dollars for every promotional post.

This amount has risen by about $200,000 since 2019 due to the steady growth of the page and the staying power of Cristiano himself.

Despite leaving then-European Champions Real Madrid, the player had a couple of successful campaigns with Italian giants Juventus, winning the Serie A title twice.

Juventus are also battling AC Milan and Inter for yet another Serie A title this season, with Ronaldo, who recently became football’s greatest ever scorer, leading the charge.

Ronaldo obviously leads the sports Instagram list, with Neymar and Messi in tow.

The top five is rounded out by David Beckham – who despite not actively playing football is still a big draw on Instagram – and Los Angeles Lakers star Lebron James.

The report was compiled by HopperHQ.com, an Instagram scheduling tool that looked at factors such as average engagement, how often they post, and the number of followers.
