Neymar's commercial value prompted many, including Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho, to call his world record transfer to Paris Saint-Germain 'cheap'.

The money rich Ligue 1 outfit shelled out a massive £198 million to secure the Brazilians services from Barcelona.

He doubled Paul Pogba's transfer fee from last summer but PSG are slowly recouping the money, and in just one day made a massive financial gain from shirt sales alone.

The 25-year-old arrived in the French capital with a welcoming gift from Javier Pastore. The Argentine attacker offered his No.10 shirt a gesture which Neymar took up.

After wearing that shirt for Brazil, Neymar now dons the iconic No.10 shirt at this new club. He follows in the footsteps of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and fellow countryman Ronaldinho.

Though Ibrahimovic and Ronaldinho's shirt sales don't compare to the revenue Neymar has generated. The official club store sold Neymar's shirt for a staggering £140 with the club selling a whopping 10,000 shirts in just one bloody day.

The sales of shirts from one day equated to £1.4 million.

In comparison to teammate Angel Di Maria, PSG have sold more Neymar shirts in one day than they have of the Argentine winger since 2015.

Meanwhile, Neymar and Co. are back in league action this weekend as they face Toulouse on Sunday.

They'll be seeking to maintain their 100% record following victories against Amiens and Guingamp.
