Neymar's Al-Hilal debut: What has been said?

The former Barcelona man completed his £77m move to Al-Hilal from PSG last month.

The forward has been injured since but played for Brazil during the international break, so should be ready to go.

And talking after this deal was complete, Neymar revealed how excited he was by this challenge.

He said: "I have achieved a lot in Europe and enjoyed special times, but I have always wanted to be a global player and test myself with new challenges and opportunities in new places.

"I want to write new sporting history, and the Saudi Pro League has tremendous energy and quality players at the moment.

"Al-Hilal is a giant club with fantastic fans, and it is the best in Asia. This gives me a feeling that it is the right decision for me at the right time with the right club.

"I love winning and scoring goals, and I plan to continue doing that in Saudi Arabia and with Al-Hilal."
