Saudi Prince Al Waleed bin Talal sent his $500 million private Boeing 747 jet to fly Neymar from Paris to Riyadh. Complete with a golden throne-like armchair, a full-sized dining table, two bedrooms, and a grand piano, the football star had a gala time on the 6-hour flight.

Sports superstar Neymar, who moved from Paris Saint-Germain to join Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal, is already getting generous dozes of their unmatched hospitality. Saudi Prince Al Waleed bin Talal sent the soccer star his personal Boeing 747 to journey from Europe to the Middle East. Only last week, we threw light on his $175 million salary, which included insane perks like a palatial mansion, a private jet that we believe will soon follow, and some $635,000 per Instagram post to promote Saudi Arabia.

But till the sports sensation gets his own jet there is the impeccable Saudi Arabian hospitality taking utmost care of him. The 31-year-old was evidently delighted in a video shared on X as he posed outside the private jet, “Let’s go to Riyadh,” he says in the video. The Brazilian was welcomed with full pomp at King Fahd International Stadium. It was an extravaganza featuring motley of music, lights, and fireworks. The welcome was made even more special with a drone display that spelled out “Neymar is blue” over the stadium.
