PSG star Neymar ordered to pay Barcelona Sh797 million

Neymar must pay 6.7 million euros (Sh797 million) to Barcelona, a court ordered yesterday after the player’s case against his former employer was dismissed. 

After his world-record transfer to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017 the Brazilian forward sued Barca for 43.6 million euros that he claimed he was due for various bonuses. 

But a judge dismissed Neymar’s case and instead sided with Barcelona, who had also sued their former player for breach of contract. 

Neymar has five days to appeal the decision. He joined Barca in 2013 and signed a new five-year contract in 2016, which included a renewal bonus worth 43.6 million euros, with 14 million paid upfront. 

The remaining 29 million euros was due to be paid on August 1, 2017, but he left on August 3.
