Sele Media Africa — Reported by Suzan Daniel

In a bizarre and astonishing development, global football icon Neymar Jr. has reportedly been named as the sole heir to a £846 million fortune left behind by a Brazilian billionaire — a man he is said to have never even met.

According to a report by Brazilian news outlet RIC, the mysterious billionaire, whose identity has not been publicly disclosed, formalized his will at a legal office in Porto Alegre before passing away. The document was reportedly authenticated on June 12, in the presence of two witnesses.

The man is believed to have been childless and single, and his deep admiration for Neymar is thought to be the reason behind this unusual gesture.

The case is now said to be pending approval from Brazilian courts, which must validate the will before Neymar can officially inherit the staggering amount.

The Reactions

The news has taken both the legal and sports communities by surprise. Social media has since erupted with reactions, memes, and commentary. Many are in disbelief over the magnitude of the inheritance, while others see it as a testament to the influence and global admiration Neymar commands.

Just imagine — £846 million! That’s nearly ₦1.5 trillion in Nigerian currency, making it one of the largest individual inheritances reported in recent history.

Moral Reflection

The story has also sparked conversation back in Africa, especially in Nigeria. Many have contrasted the generous legacy left by the unnamed Brazilian billionaire with some Nigerian billionaires’ alleged lack of philanthropy.

“Brazilian Billionaire dey leave people money, while Nigerian Billionaire dey leave people for hospital,” one user commented online, in a viral post that has sparked debate on wealth, legacy, and societal impact.
