Neymar scored for Paris St-Germain in their pre-season friendly against Jeonbuk Hyundai MotorsBrazil forward Neymar has joined Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal from French champions Paris St-Germain.
The deal for the former Barcelona player is understood to be worth about 90m euros (£77.6m) plus add-ons.
Neymar, who joined PSG for a world-record fee of £200m in 2017, was left out of their squad for Saturday's Ligue 1 draw against Lorient.
The 31-year-old was not part of coach Luis Enrique's plans for the new season.
His exit also fits PSG's strategy of moving away from the 'Galacticos' era of signing high-profile players for big fees and significant wages, with Lionel Messi also leaving the club earlier this summer.
"I am here in Saudi Arabia, I am Hilali," Neymar said in a video posted to the club's social media accounts.
The forward was understood to be earning an annual income in the region of 25m euros (£21.6m) at the French side.
He will reportedly be paid 150m eurosexternal-link (£129.2m) a year in Saudi Arabia - six times the amount he earned at PSG.
The Brazilian made 173 appearances for PSG, helping the club win 13 trophies, including five Ligue 1 titles, as well as reaching the 2020 Champions League final.
"It is always difficult to say goodbye to an amazing player like Neymar, one of the best players in the world, said Nasser Al-Khelaifi, PSG's president and chief executive.
"I will never forget the day he arrived at Paris St-Germain, and what he has contributed to our club and our project over the last six years."
Neymar's time in the French capital has also been hampered by a number of ankle injuries.
He had surgery in March that caused him to miss the rest of the season and he only resumed training in July.
The forward missed two of Brazil's matches at the 2022 World Cup after being injured in their opening group match.
He also missed the 2019 Copa America after suffering torn ligaments in his right ankle and was out for several weeks in 2021 with a similar injury.
Neymar's departure comes two days after PSG's Kylian Mbappe was reintegrated back into first-team training after positive talks with the club.
The France forward, 24, had been in a contract stand-off amid a desire to join Real Madrid but could now extend his contract at PSG, with his current deal due to expire next summer.
Mbappe was also left out of the squad for the Lorient game and watched the match from the stands.
Last month, PSG gave Al-Hilal permission to talk to Mbappe after the Saudi side made a world-record £259m bid.
The Neymar continues a remarkable summer spending spree by Saudi clubs, underlining the league's ambition to be one of the top competitions in the world in the next few years.
Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kante, Jordan Henderson, Ruben Neves, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino have all moved to Saudi Arabia.
Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr from Manchester United in January.
Neymar's new team-mates include ex-Wolves captain Ruben Neves, former Chelsea centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, formerly of Lazio, who were all signed for big fees.
After Riyad Mahez left Manchester City to join Al-Ahli in July, Pep Guardiola said the Saudi league's financial muscle has "changed the market".
"A few months ago when Cristiano [Ronaldo] was the only one to go, no-one thought this many top, top players would play in the Saudi league," the City manager said.
"In the future there will be more and that's why clubs need to be aware of what is happening.
"I don't know how long they will sustain it, but the feeling is that they will stay. The players want to take this experience to play in that league and they are able to do it."

This is another big name signing for the Saudi Pro League that a major European club is privately relieved has happened.
It was Neymar's move to Paris St-Germain from Barcelona in 2017 that triggered the huge hike in transfer fees, but it did not really have the desired effect in delivering the Champions League to the French capital.
It took them a while but PSG eventually concluded the 'Galacticos' model was not the right one. Getting Neymar off their wage bill - following Lionel Messi's move to Major League Soccer - is a major plus when it comes to meeting their Financial Fair Play obligations.
If Neymar is even earning close to the salary being speculated at, it is far more than the 25m euros a year he was on at PSG, so the deal makes sense for him.
It also keeps the Pro League in the spotlight when it comes to attracting the biggest names, even if injuries mean the Brazilian's best days are probably behind him.
A bit like Messi, who is much older, Neymar tends to play in moments these days. But, just as with Messi, those moments can be magical.
