Al-Hilal forward Neymar has reportedly purchased a "piece of waterfront land" in Florida, sparking speculation that he could join Inter Miami in 2025.
Neymar is currently playing in the Saudi Pro League after completing the switch to Al-Hilal from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2023.
Unfortunately for the Brazilian, his time in Saudi Arabia has been largely hampered by injury after he sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury while on international duty in October last year.
Neymar recently made his long-awaited return from injury, coming off the bench to feature in an AFC Champions League game against Al-Ain on October 2023.
While Al-Hilal will be pleased with Neymar's recent return to action, it is currently unclear how long the 32-year-old will continue to play for the Saudi Arabian club.
Neymar purchases property in Florida
The forward is out of contract at the end of the season, but there is an option to extend his deal by a further year.
Neymar has been linked with a move to MLS side Inter Miami and a potential reunion with his former Barcelona teammates Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Neymar has splashed out $26 million (£20m) to purchase a "piece of waterfront land" in Florida.
Neymar's purchase allegedly includes "approved plans for a 13,000-square-foot house" and the buyer was quoted as saying "it's exactly what I'm looking for".
The recent purchase has only added to speculation that Neymar is looking to leave Al-Hilal for Inter Miami in 2025.
Will Inter Miami be able to pull off Neymar deal?
Inter Miami will have to overcome some hurdles if they are to recreate the famous 'MSN' forward lineup in MLS.
Neymar would likely have to accept a significant pay cut on the lucrative deal he is currently on at Al-Hilal.
Meanwhile, Inter Miami would also have to free up one of their free designated player spots which are used for players who exceed the league's salary limit.
Those spots are currently occupied by Messi, Busquets and Leonardo Campana, with the latter the likeliest candidate to be replaced by Neymar as a designated player. body check tags ::
