His most recent venture involves the construction of a property in Mangaratiba, a town situated on the southern coast of Brazil's national capital, which has again prompted a cascade of reactions.
This luxury mansion boasts an expansive garden and a plethora of amenities, including a lake that has reportedly sparked a dispute between Neymar's father and the Brazilian government, as per ESPN.
Amid speculations about the footballer facing a hefty fine exceeding $3.3 million, Sports Brief delves into three captivating features of his multimillion-dollar residence, which is anticipated to be a haven for himself and his family.
Features of Neymar's luxury mansion
Custom-built racing track

An artificial lake
The standout feature of Neymar's Rio mansion is the 1000-square-meter mini-lake, providing the Al-Hilal star and his family with a touch of nature within the confines of their home.
The lake boasts a wooden surface and a beach kiosk surrounded by rocks, creating an ambience reminiscent of an actual beach. However, this luxurious addition seems to have sparked concerns in the town of Mangaratiba, where the mansion is located.
According to a report by Marca, the lake on Neymar Jr.'s property is accused of contributing to deforestation, rock breaking, and the diversion of a river. Consequently, the forward is facing charges of environmental crimes. The municipality's Secretary of the Environment has issued an order to halt construction work on that particular section of the mansion.
