WATCH : Neymar's farewell message to Barcelona
Updated | By Sky Tshabalala
Neymar has finally completed his move from FC Barcelona to french outfit PSG for a world record fee of 222m euros.
The 25-year-old won seven major trophies in his four seasons at the Nou Camp, including the Champions League once and La Liga twice.
He is set to earn 45m euros on a 5 year deal.
Neymar's transfer smashes the previous record set when Paul Pogba returned to Manchester United from Juventus for £89m in August 2016.
His £782,000-a-week wages mean PSG's total outlay is £400m.
Neymar said he has joined "one of the most ambitious clubs in Europe".
"Paris St-Germain's ambition attracted me to the club, along with the passion and the energy this brings," he added.
"I feel ready to take the challenge. I will do everything I can to help my new team-mates."
Now in a emotional video, Neymar has bid farewell to the Camp Nou faithful, reflecting on his 3 year stay and thanking players and fans.
Very Emotional..
