Neymar’s stint with Al-Hilal was cut short after just a few matches due to an injury he sustained while representing the Brazilian national team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in South America.

The emotional moment saw him leaving the field in tears during Brazil’s unexpected loss to Uruguay, marking the first time in 22 years that Brazil faced defeat against them.

Despite being sidelined from football, Neymar continues to enjoy various aspects of life. One of his pursuits includes leveraging his personal brand for financial gains. Beyond bolstering the reputation of one of the world’s most widely followed athletes, Neymar recently took part in an advertising campaign that showcased his physique. In a surprising move, he joined forces with reality TV sensation Kim Kardashian.

Kim Kardashian, with an impressive net worth of $1.7 billion, recently ventured into launching a new line of men’s underwear through her fashion company. To heighten the brand’s appeal, Kardashian successfully enlisted Neymar, one of the most celebrated and influential athletes of our time, to endorse the product, thereby further enhancing the reputation of her SKIMS brand.

Kim Kardashian’s fashion empire has expanded into the realm of men’s apparel, strategically employing accomplished athletes as brand ambassadors. Alongside Neymar, SKIMS is also represented by other sports luminaries such as Nick Bosa, a rugby player, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, a prominent basketball player.
