Neymar has had plenty of time for fun activities after suffering an ACL injury that sidelined him for almost a year, and it appears he has spent his time looking for new homes. The Al-Hilal striker is set to buy the private island of Japao, a tropical hideaway off the coast of the port city of Angra dos Reis, according to The Sun.
Neymar is reportedly interested in buying the island after its owner lowered the asking price by more than £3million. The six-acre retreat includes a main villa with two master suites, three ocean-view bungalows and a koi fish pond, and is only accessible by boat or helicopter. One visitor wrote in an online review: “ The island’s panoramic ocean views and mystical landscape make it an incredibly special place to find some solitude.”
A tropical refuge for Neymar
Neymar plans to rent the island for more than £40,000 later this month as part of a “ essay », According to Brazilian journalist Leo Dias. The 32-year-old’s ex-wife, Bruna Marquezine, is among those who have stayed on the island in the past.
Neymar’s injury hell is coming to an end. The Brazilian recently shared an update on his training alongside his Al-Hilal teammates, although he may have to wait before actually returning to action.
