The transfer of the Brazilian “10” from PSG to André Carrillo’s old team for 90 million euros was one of the market sensations: Crescent Moon fans are delighted to see him play for their club. A few days before his signing, Al Hilal’s followers created a hashtag to urge his team to negotiate with “Ney’s” entourage.
With the rapid progress and signing of the deal, Neymar has already landed in Riyadh and will be presented to the entire Saudi public this Saturday, August 19. To this end, since early morning in Saudi Arabia, the first postcards of one of the most anticipated sporting events in this country have appeared.
