Neymar has been a football star for over a decade, and due to his brilliant career, the Brazilian has been able to afford lots of luxuries. It wasn’t the best conditions that the Brazilian lived in Brazil, but over the years, he has been earning a lot of money with some of the biggest clubs in the world and remains one of the best-paid athletes in the world. Now, the Al Hilal star owns a couple of personal jets that he uses to travel the world. Neymar owns the Embraer Phenom 100, which was manufactured in 2011 and is valued at around $2.5 million. He also owns the Cessna Citation Sovereign, which was manufactured in 2008 and is valued at around $22 million. Neymar had the Embraer Legacy 450, but the Brazilian government seized his jet after a tax scandal involving Neymar’s transfer to FC Barcelona from Santos.
The Embraer Phenom 100 was in the air for the first time in July 2007, and over 400 aircraft have been produced since its introduction. Global Air reports that the aircraft has a capacity for 4 to 6 passengers with a wingspan of 40 feet and four inches. The maximum speed is 390 knots, which is 449 miles per hour. The length of the jet is 42 feet and one inch, while the height is 14 feet and three inches.
