After the list of nominees for the Best Award 2019 was revealed, the news of not being considered not only affects Neymar professionally, but also financially.
By not being part of the top ten candidates, the Brazilian forward misses out on the chance of a three million euro increase in his contract with Paris Saint Germain, as reported by UOL Esporte.
This is due to the existence of a clause that states that if the 27-year-old player were to be among the ten nominees, his salary should be increased by the indicated amount.
While rumors of the former Barcelona player wanting to leave the Parisian club had already been strong, this salary reduction may be another reason for his possible departure.
Up to now, Neymar is joining the rest of the team for training and it is expected that he will resolve his situation prior to the negotiation deadline - August 11th - for the upcoming season.
