Yep. Compare PSG, Monaco and Marseille etc growing into a bigger league in 10 years to a Ukrainian league that has never been big.

No club makes a lot of money from shirt sales that's a myth. Clubs get 10% of the money from shirt sales so even if Neymar makes 100 million in shirt sales they get 10 million back which is chump change. Neymar makes money because it grows PSG as a club, they will get more fans from around the world that will want to watch them and cable stations over years will see the demand rise and ligue 1 gets more money from TV rights. Neymar is the most marketable player in the world, PSG will be able to get more sponserships who will want to be affiliated with him. That's where the money comes from. Being a more global club means making more money from tours, PSG can't go to china and australia the club isn't big enough but as the years go on their fanbase globally will grow. 

All of your points are literally things that could change. PSG at the very least could make 25 million per year from deals for 4 years then sell him for 100 million if things aren't working out. 28 year old neymar for 100 million in this market is a bargain.

 

If you don't think they could make more than 25 million a year from him then I think the conversation is over there. 

Err can you not read who said anything about Ukraine or any of their teams for the matter.

Teams like United have billions of fans I'm willing to bet 10% of sales from that is more than what many teams make from sponsors and all, only teams like United and Madrid get bumper sponsorhips which net them hundreds of millions a year Neymar is not going to get PSG that sorry that's a pipe dream on your end, PSG have a long way to go before they even come close to the global status of these teams, even teams like Barcelona and Liverpool aren't there and they're world famous a status PSG won't have for a long while.

Neymar has moved to France and most fans of the sport won't care they'll continue following the more well known clubs regardless, that's how football has been for decades.

How have you calculated 25m? The conversation is most likely over because you won't be able to explain this part, making money means to offset losses and make profit his wage alone would eat up that 25m a year.

Sorry I meant Greek league. My point still stands. 

Of course they have a long way to go. I never said they didn't. All of my conversation has been talking about how this can affect them for years to come. PSG is a company that will be around for a very long time, they don't think short term. 

You really think people haven't tuned in to watch Neymar in his matches for PSG? Really?

I never calculated it, I'm saying it's not ridiculous to say extra deals where they can use Neymar as the face of the club, sponsorships, merch sales etc. That could easily come up to 25 million at least in a year. 

But nevermind you're obviously right. The massive corperation of PSG have no idea what they're doing and threw away 200 million without any way of thinking of how they could make their money back no way having such a big player could increase them in any meaningful way, man if only you were on their board.
