The most expensive player football has ever seen and the heir who became a record-breaker in his own right, Neymar is at a fourth World Cup &mdash; though at 34, his role is very different now. Here are the numbers behind a Brazilian great. For the bigger picture, see our <a href=\"\/us\/world-cup-2026\/\">World Cup 2026<\/a> hub.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Neymar stats: the numbers of a Brazilian great<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Team<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Apps<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Goals<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Santos<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">268<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">153<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Barcelona<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">186<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">105<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Paris Saint-Germain<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">173<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">118<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Al-Hilal<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">7<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">1<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Brazil<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">128<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">79<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><p><em>Club figures are all-competition career totals; tallies can vary by provider. Santos covers both of his spells.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<h2>The man who passed Pele<\/h2>\n<p>Neymar&#8217;s defining number is 79 &mdash; the goals that, in 2023, took him past Pele as Brazil&#8217;s all-time leading scorer. Add more than 370 goals across his club career and you have one of the most prolific attackers of his generation, a left-footed forward who blended flair, dribbling and ruthless finishing.<\/p>\n\n<h2>The \u20ac222m man: from Santos to a world record<\/h2>\n<p>After winning the Copa Libertadores with boyhood club Santos in 2011, Neymar moved to Barcelona and then, in 2017, to Paris Saint-Germain for &euro;222m &mdash; a fee that made him the most expensive player in history and a record that still stands today. He later spent time at Al-Hilal before returning home to Santos.<\/p>\n\n<h2>A treble at Barcelona, titles everywhere<\/h2>\n<p>Neymar&#8217;s trophy haul is vast: the 2015 Champions League and treble with Barcelona, five Ligue 1 titles at PSG, the Copa Libertadores with Santos, and Olympic gold with Brazil in 2016. Few forwards of his era have won more.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Neymar at the World Cup 2026<\/h2>\n<p>This is Neymar&#8217;s fourth World Cup, but his role is a peripheral one. Named in Brazil&#8217;s squad despite a calf injury suffered in May, he was left out of the group games as he built fitness, and has been used sparingly. Brazil, meanwhile, have powered into the Round of 16 after beating Japan, led by the likes of <a href=\"\/us\/news\/vinicius-junior-stats\/\">Vinicius Junior<\/a> and <a href=\"\/us\/news\/matheus-cunha-stats\/\">Matheus Cunha<\/a>.
