Most expensive Paris Saint-Germain departures

Not only is Neymar Jr the most expensive signing of all time following his €222m transfer from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain, but the Brazilian is also Les Parisiens most expensive sale.

Moving from the French capital to Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal in 2023, Neymar's sale injected €90m into PSG's coffers, less than half of the sum they shelled out six years earlier.

Neymar's sale exceeded the previous record high departure of Goncalo Guedes to Valencia in a €40m deal back in 2018.

Since then PSG have sold Xavi Simons to RB Leipzig for €50m, Manuel Ugarte to Manchester United for €50m and midfielder Marco Verratti to Qatari side Al-Arabi for €45m.

Ronaldinho was PSG's most expensive player sale for 13 years when he joined Barcelona for €32.25m in 2003 until defender David Luiz was sold back to Chelsea in 2016 for €35m.

Hugo Ekitike's €31.5m transfer to Eintracht Frankfurt and Gianluigi Donnarumma's €30m switch to Manchester City both feature in the top 10 ahead of Lucas Moura, whose €28.4m deal to Tottenham Hotspur in 2017 was completed alongside Serge Aurier's switch to north London.
