- Neymar, a 33-year-old Brazilian footballer with a substantial fortune and monthly Al-Hilal contracts, has not publicly commented and representatives say they are not yet formally informed.
- The will, recorded at a Porto Alegre notary office with two witnesses present, is before Brazilian courts for approval before the inheritance can be legally transferred and taxed.
- If approved, the inheritance would add to Neymar's already enormous wealth and raises questions in Brazil about fandom, legacy, and the unusual nature of this legal bequest.
