Four years after departure: Barca and Neymar end legal battle

After several years, both parties have come to an agreement: FC Barcelona and Neymar have settled their legal dispute out of court. The Spanish football club announced on Monday. The Brazilian Neymar, who moved from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, had sued his former employer for 46.3 million euros due to outstanding bonuses from his contract signed in 2016. This had countered with a lawsuit for breach of contract.

After a judge in Barcelona saw the club in the right and sentenced the offensive player to pay 6.7 million euros in June last year, he appealed and opened a new case, according to Spanish media reports. Ultimately, in the statement, the Catalans confirmed an out-of-court settlement over three labor lawsuits and one civil lawsuit.
