Barca reveal Neymar’s transfer detail after father’s consent
- Updated: January 24, 2014
Barcelona new president, Josep Bartomeu has revealed that the deal that took Neymar to Camp Nou cost the club 86.2million euros.
Bartomeu, who took over after the position after Sandro Rosell stepped down as president on Thursday told a news conference Neymar’s father had given them permission to go public.
The Brazil international’s close-season move from Santos, which the Spanish club initially said was worth 57.1 million euros, is being investigated by a court for possible misappropriation of funds following a complaint from a Barca member.
Barca director Raul Sanllehi reiterated the transfer on its own had cost 57.1 million euros including 17.1 million euros to Santos and 40 million euros as a “compensation fee” paid to a company owned by Neymar’s parents.
However, he also detailed other payments around the transfer such as a signing bonus of 10 million euros and various other fees paid to the family that took the total cost to 86.2 million.
Barca are paying Neymar 8.8 million euros in wages per season for his five-year contract, said Sanllehi.
