Brazilian footballer Neymar has been officially unveiled by his new club Paris-Saint-Germain at a press conference on Friday.
His appearance in the French capital marks the completion of his world-record 222-million-euro transfer from Barcelona, making him the most expensive player of all time.
The 25-year-old’s price tag stunned the football world, more than doubling the previous record that Manchester United paid for Paul Pogba just 12 months ago.
Speaking at Friday's event, Neymar insisted money was not his main motivation in deciding to swap teams, saying that he wanted a new challenge instead.
