      This talented athlete has struck several crucial goals for his national team and has lead it to numerous important wins. Neymar's early life was similar to almost all the big personalities around the world and he had to sacrifice many luxuries in order to witness humongous success. Currently, the net annual income of this footballer is measured to be more than 13 Million Dollar, making him ranked as the 7th richest footballer of the world. Neymar seems to be a frivolous spender and spends his present life amidst all the lavishness a niche person needs. Many people might be unaware of the fact but this footballer is an avid car collector and owns a number of stunning cars from around the world.

      To start with, his first ever purchase after making into the big league was the Volvo XC 60. This muscled Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) from the Swedish auto giant is an exemplary piece of safety and technology. Rumours claim that Neymar bought this model for the purpose of learning driving and at $75000; this purchase is not exactly a money saver deal. Then there is the Porsche Panamera – first 4-seater sedan from the German auto maker. This sports car is available in the global market in a diesel, petrol and hybrid guise, and bears a tag of a mammoth $132000. Lastly, there is another astonishing sports car parked in his garage – Audi R8 GT. This model is the latest addition in the R8 series and bears a steep price tag of $250000. This convertible car is tapped under the hood with a heavy 5.2-litre V10 petrol engine, which is able to churn a power output of 552 bhp with peak torque of a mammoth 540 Nm.

      The footballer has successfully created his sports legacy in a short span of time and continues to elate his fans each moment he spends on the field. In the recently conducted opening match of Brazil with Croatia during Football World Cup 2014, Neymar scored twice and led the team to a 3-1 win. The second match of Brazil vs. Mexico also saw Neymar in full action but he couldn't stop the match to end in a draw. In the after match conference, the senior officials of Brazil football team lauded Neymar's performance. Experts believe that this young celebrity has the potential to surpass the achievements of Pele and Maradona. The coming time would certainly give people the idea as to how true these claims are.
