Neymar faces five-year jail-term request in corruption and fraud trial
Barcelona from Santos in 2013 and the complainant, Brazilian investment firm DIS, said on Thursday it was demanding a five-year jail term. Along with Neymar, the defendants in the trial being brought by Spanish prosecutors, which begins in Barcelona on Monday, are his parents, the two clubs, former Barca presidents Josep Maria Bartomeu and Sandro Rosell, and former Santos president Odilio Rodrigues. The case stems from a complaint by DIS, a Brazilian company that owned 40% of the rights to Neymar when he was at Santos.
