The will was signed on June 12 in Porto Alegre before two witnesses, though until the Brazilian courts approve the release of the fortune, the money will remain locked.
The businessman who died without marrying is reported to have chosen Neymar because he admired Neymar’s relationship with his father, Neymar Sr.
That relationship reminded him of his own late father.
However, lawyers warn that the inheritance might not be straightforward.
The estate is currently under review, and probate disputes, tax issues, or other legal challenges could slow the procession or halt it entirely.
Under all such reports, the former Barcelona star has remained silent.
Earlier this year, Neymar returned to Brazil from abroad to his boyhood club, Santos, bagging three goals in 14 matches in the second half of the 2024/25 season.
