Neymar Da Silva Santos Junior

Neymar is a Brazilian footballer, striker for French PSG and the Brazilian national team. The player has a number of records and many sports titles, including the most important one - the Olympic champion. The title of the most expensive in financial terms should be added to them: the desire to see Magrelo (nickname of Neymar) in the ranks of Paris Saint-Germain cost the club owners € 222 million. And fans consider the athlete one of the most stylish: he is known for his masterpiece hairstyles - a whipped mohawk and curls, pigtails, long bangs and headbands.

The athlete was born in the Brazilian city of Moji das Cruzis. His full name sounds like this - Neymar da Silva Santos Junior, but for simplicity of pronunciation in the world community, the Brazilian is called simply by name - Neymar.

Neymar Santos, the father of the future celebrity, was in the past a football player, and at the time of his son's birth he was engaged in the sale of jewelry. Nadine Santos's mother ran the household. Neymar has a younger sister, Rafaella.

Soon after the birth of their son, the family moved to San Vicente. When Neymar Jr. grew up, he began to show interest in his father's favorite sport. The head of the family himself became the first football coach for the future Barcelona forward, and taught the boy the intricacies of the game of millions. In 2003, Neymar was admitted to the children's academy of the football club "Santos", and the family again changed their place of residence - they moved to the city of Santos, which is consonant with the name of the team and their own surname.

The boy's successes on the football field were so noticeable that a 14-year-old teenager was invited to the youth academy by the Spanish grand - Real Madrid. But Santos made every effort to keep the player at home. Since then, the player began to earn decent money, which allowed the family to buy their own house.

In the life of Neymar there were many fleeting stellar romances. The footballer dated model Carol Abranchez, actress Daniela Carvalho, TV presenter Nicole Bals, model Barbara Evans and singer Rihanna. Model Gabriella Lenzi was rushed to write as a wife, as soon as the girl starred in a wedding photo shoot for a magazine. The athlete himself said that he was thinking about family and children, but had not yet met the one with whom he was ready to go down the aisle.

In 2011, the 19-year-old became a father. One of his friends, a Brazilian girl Carolina, gave birth to a son, David Lucca. But the birth of a baby did not contribute to the development of relations, the couple broke up. Nevertheless, Neymar keeps in touch with his son and participates in his upbringing.

Victoria Bonya spoke about friendship with a celebrity. True, evil tongues claim that the Brazilian does not even know the name of the Russian woman. But the former participant of "House-2" emphasizes that she now lives in Europe and promotes the TV project "Day with a Star". That is why, in addition to Neymar, the phone's address book contains the numbers of Kilian Mbappé and David De Gea, Thibaut Courtois and Paulo Dybala and many others.

In 2016, Neymar renewed his relationship with actress Bruna Marchesini, whom he had met earlier. The romance ended without having stood the test of distance and media attention.

From time to time, news about Neymar's novels with Russian girls appears on the Web. At the end of 2019, when the footballer attended the annual EM Association Children of the World for Rwanda Aln charity dinner, to which other stars were invited, he was noticed in the company of Russian top model Sasha Luss. They spent the whole evening in pleasant communication, however, after that there was no more information about their romance on the Internet.

But in 2020, the name of Neymar began to be discussed again, this time he was suspected of having a love relationship with the Russian Instagram model Katerina Safarova. It is known that she is a frequenter of noisy parties, loves to visit places where famous personalities are invited. Photos from a festive party in an embrace with Neymar Catherine even posted on her profile on Instagram, which caused a stir. By the way, the Brazilian denies a relationship with a Russian girl, stating that they are just friends.

There were also sex scandals in Neymar's life. An unpleasant incident happened in the summer of 2019. Information was leaked to the press that a police report was filed against the player about rape. According to the testimony of the alleged victim, the Brazilian Nagila Trindade, it happened in the evening at a hotel in France.

According to the model, she met the footballer on Instagram, after which they met. For this, the woman flew in from another country. According to Nazhila's testimony, Neymar came to the meeting in alcoholic intoxication, almost immediately began to pester her with kisses, and when he was refused, he got angry and took possession of the model's body by force.

The Brazilian denied all charges, explaining that he was a victim of extortion. Trindade just wanted money from him, he said. Indeed, soon the charges against the football player were dropped, explaining that Nazhila's testimony was constantly changing, and there was no evidence of his guilt.

It is known that Neymar has a great relationship with his sister Rafaella. In her honor, the forward even got a tattoo on his arm. In addition to this one, there are other tattoos on his body, a total of more than 30 pieces. The footballer's feet depict a boy with a ball, standing against the background of the city. He has the Champions League Cup on his arm, and also has a tattoo dedicated to his father and son David.

In addition to drawings on the body, the Brazilian often shocks fans with different haircuts and a change in hair color. Neymar sees no obstacle to lighten bangs or dye his entire head pink.

Neymar took part in the filming of the movie "Three Xs: World Domination", which was released in screens in 2017. The film also features prominent Hollywood figures Vin Diesel and Samuel L. Jackson.

The Brazilian is often involved in commercials. Nike, Sony, Volkswagen, Red Bull and Unilever have partnered with the Brazilian forward. In 2013, a video became especially popular on the Web in which the player introduced the Hypervenom boots from Nike. It is known that Ronaldo is involved in financial and organizational issues of Neymar.

As of 2019, the total earnings of Neymar, including the salary of a football player, all kinds of bonuses and cooperation with global giant companies, exceeded the $ 100 million mark.

Music is Neymar's favorite hobby. Moreover, the footballer not only listens and dances at discos, but also performs songs himself. Recordings of vocals in a duet with Brazilian singers Gustavo Lima and Michel Telo became popular. The audio recordings were made back in the days when the player played for Santos.

Photos of Neymar can often be seen on Instagram. On the social network, the striker publishes pictures in which he is depicted together with other football players.

At the age of 17, Neymar officially began his professional football career: he signed his first contract with his native club Santos. Already in the second match for the first team, the young player scored the first goal in big football.

In the spring of 2010, Santos won the main trophy and became the champion of the state of Sao Paulo, and Neymar himself was recognized as the best player in the championship. After that, the team wins the Brazilian Cup, and Neymar with 11 goals becomes the top scorer of the tournament. In the summer, Santos won the main tournament in South America - the Copa Libertadores, in which the champions and vice-champions of the continent's countries participate.

In 2011, Neymar was awarded the FIFA Ferenc Puskas Prize, which is awarded to the player who scored the most beautiful goal. This prize went to the striker for an incredible goal against Flamengo. Before the last blow, Neymar single-handedly dealt with the opponent's defense. The video of the goal is still remembered by fans.

It cannot be said that the striker has special physical characteristics (height 174 cm, weight 68 kg), which help him to work wonders on the field, but, according to football analysts, Neymar's technique and work with the ball are at a high level. In 2011, the 19-year-old was named the best player in Brazil and South America. Neymar was nominated for the Golden Ball.

The incredible successes of the athlete aroused keen interest in him from the leading clubs of world football. Representatives of Real Madrid, London Chelsea, Turin Juventus, as well as Milan and Manchester United have approached the Santos management with lucrative offers regarding the transfer of Neymar. London's West Ham, Makhachkala's Anji and Moscow's CSKA tried to acquire a player.

Neymar scored his debut goal in a blue garnet jersey in the game for the Spanish Super Cup against Atletico Madrid. It took the footballer 6 minutes after coming on as a substitute to get the ball into the opponent's net. Also in Season 1, Neymar broke Lionel Messi's record for the fastest hat-trick in club history. It took Neymar 13 minutes to score 3 goals against the Scottish Celtic.

The next season was a triumphant one for Barcelona. The team won the Spanish Championship, the Spanish Cup and the Champions League. Neymar shared the Champions League top scorer title with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and broke several club and personal records in football competition.

In the national team, Neymar made his debut in August 2010 in a game against the US national team, although fans demanded that the striker be included in the squad, which two months earlier participated in the World Cup in South Africa. Fans even collected 14 thousand signatures in support of the footballer. In addition, the legendary Pele personally campaigned for Neymar, but Dunga, the head coach of the Brazilian national team, considered the striker too young for such a competition.

At the home World Cup in 2014, the football player was recognized as the best player of the match several times: he scored goals that decided the outcome of meetings. But in the quarterfinal match against the Colombian national team, defender Juan Zúñiga inflicted a serious injury on Neymar, breaking the Brazilian striker's third vertebra, which made the athlete unable to continue playing in the tournament. The Brazilian national team in the next game ingloriously lost to the Germans with a score of 1: 7, leaving the competition.

Neither the fans, nor the players, nor the coach of the team doubted the importance of Neymar for the national team, so after the World Cup the striker was appointed captain of the yellow-greens. Since then, the number ten jersey and T-shirts have become popular in Brazil.

In May 2017, the media reported that Neymar had delivered an ultimatum to the Barcelona leadership. According to the publication Mundo Deportivo, the forward told the representatives of the Catalan club's management that he would leave the team if cooperation with coach Juan Carlos Unsue, who served as assistant coach of the Catalans, was not terminated.

As reported by Spanish journalists, the conflict between the football player and the mentor happened at one of the training sessions. Unsue made a remark to Neymar, which caused a negative reaction from the attacker. A verbal skirmish ensued between the participants in the incident, and later the coach criticized the athlete for his behavior outside the football field.

In the 2016/2017 season, Neymar showed negative performance statistics. The Brazilian played 28 matches, scoring 13 goals. Such indicators against the background of the performance of Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez looked depressing. In March 2017, the British media reported about the possible transfer of the Brazilian to London Chelsea, since Roman Abramovich, the owner of the English team, had already agreed with the management of the Catalan club to acquire the striker, but the head coach of the Aristocrats Antonio Conte imposed a ban on the deal.

In August 2017, Neymar himself bought his contract from Barcelona for € 222 million in order to comply with the rules of financial fair play and leave for France without any problems. The footballer plans to play at Paris Saint-Germain for 5 years and receive a salary of € 30 million a year, according to the British TV channel Sky Sports. Another € 40 million fell into the account of the striker's father as a personal agent. According to Mundo Deportivo, Neymar received € 64 million as a bonus and could hide these earnings. Now the issue is being dealt with by the tax service.

For the first six months, the statistics of Neymar's games at PSG were impressive. The forward was listed among the leaders in the scorers' race with 11 goals scored, 10 assists. In the Champions League, he managed to score 6 goals in 6 matches and take part in 4 assists. In addition, he won the French Cup and Super Cup and led the team to victory in the French League Cup.

Shortly before the 2018 World Cup, Neymar was injured. Doctors of the Brazilian national team, concerned about the health of their main hope, took the athlete home to have surgery on his foot. By the time of the World Cup in Russia, the forward managed to recover and earn the title of the best player in the 1/8 finals.

Neymar has several more tournament records: the author of the latest goal in regulation time, the leader in shots on the ball and shots on target, the best player according to the InStat index. In the championship he was fouled 23 times, and here the Brazilian is also the first. During the competition, the footballer changed his hairstyle three times, and jokes on the topic of 14 minutes, during which the striker feigned suffering while lying on the grass, did not leave the media for a couple of months.

In December 2019, in a match against Saint-Etienne at the French Championship, PSG defeated the opponent with a score of 2: 0, but this fact did not attract the attention of fans. In the 62nd minute, Neymar had to shoot a penalty, but for the first time in 2 years he failed to convert it, breaking through the post.

Neymar still spends a lot of time on the field, regularly trains and hones his ball possession. True, not all the tricks of a football player used during the games go into his hands. In early February 2020, the PSG striker received a yellow card in the 22nd round of the French Championship.

More precisely, Neymar got the card not for the feint done, but for what happened after that. In the 38th minute, the Brazilian dribbled against Arno Suquet and, using his legs, threw the ball over his head. Jérôme Brizard, the game's chief arbiter, warned Neymar about the dangers of performing such tricks near other players.

The Brazilian reacted ambiguously to Brizar's remark and in a raised voice began to prove to his opponent that he had not done anything forbidden. Indeed, football players do not receive yellow cards for feints, but for disputes with referees they can earn them. This happened to Neymar, who thus paid for “unsportsmanlike behavior” on the field.

Despite the seeming injustice, the footballer is now preparing for new games, because, having a reputation as a top-level player, he believes that he has no right to let the team down in important matches.

The previous match against Lille, in which Neymar participated, caused no less discussion. Having scored the ball into the opponents' goal, the Brazilian folded his fingers with numbers 2 and 4, thus dedicating the goal on the eve of the deceased Kobe Bryant.

Kobe has been a symbol of basketball for a couple of generations, and the American professional attacking quarterback has played for the National Basketball Association for 20 seasons for the Los Angeles Lakers.
