The famous football site reveals the most sought after details of the signing of the Brazilian star by Barcelona.

'Football Leaks' has thrown itself in at the deep end and revealed the most desired details of the Neymar transfer to Barcelona.

The site reveals that Neymar received a bonus of 8.5 million euros for signing for the Catalan club, as well as securing himself an salary of 45.9 million euros across the five seasons he is signed on for at the club.

Furthermore, Neymar has the following bonuses on his contract:

- 100,000 euros each time he is called up for Barcelona, whether he plays or not. -1,062,500 euros extra for playing at least 60% of the games. -637,500 if Barca qualify for the Champions League, without passing through the preliminary stage of qualification. -425,000 euros for passing the group stages -425,000 euros for winning the Balon d'Or.

-Bonuses for winning La Liga: 637,500 euros; Champions League: 850,000 euros; Copa Del Rey + La Liga: 850,000 euros; Copa Del Rey + Champions League: 1,487,500 euros; the Treble: 1.7 million euros. He has to play 60% of the games in these or the quantity is halved.

Lastly, they highlight the agreement for the Brazilian to learn Catalan and to immerse himself in the Catalan culture. Here we see the curious clause of the contract: 'Maximum efforts to integrate himself into the Catalan culture, respecting and acquiring the cultural values, committing especially to the learning of the Catalunian langauage, fundamental vehicle for this integration.
