The German company “Puma” sports products officially announced the conclusion of a historic contract, with Brazilian Neymar, the star of the French Paris Saint-Germain team, to become the most prominent promotional face of the company during the coming period.
The Brazilian star terminated a fifteen-year contract with Nike, which amounted to $ 100 million, before moving to one of its most prominent competitors, who will wear its products during the coming period, especially his soccer shoes.
Neymar said in the propaganda video for his presentation as a new star for the German company, that he joined Puma due to the myths associated with the company during their football career, most notably his countryman Pele and Argentine Diego Armando Maradona.
The company “Nike” began sponsoring the Brazilian star since he emerged as a remarkable talent in Brazil, at the age of 13 years, and the sponsorship at that time included the support of the Brazilian club Santos, which provided him to the world, but Neymar decided to end the contract two weeks ago.
Neymar is the most expensive player in football history, as he moved from the Spanish ranks of Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, for 222 million euros.
