After whirlwind couple of weeks, Neymar was formally introduced as the newest member of French soccer giant Paris Saint-Germain after paying a world-record transfer fee of US$263 million (€222 million).
On top of that, Neymar's new five-year contract will come with an annual salary of $53 million (€45 million), making him the highest-paid footballer in the world. In total, PSG will eventually pay more than $500 million for Neymar's services.
