He was unveiled in an extravagant display of lights and pyrotechnics at the King Fahd International Stadium on Saturday.
But prior to that he was welcomed to the Middle East in eye-catching style, boarding a Boeing 747 that was hired out just for Neymar and his entourage.
The plane is owned by Prince Al Waleed bin Talal who lent it to Neymar free of charge.
The luxury plane boasts a lengthy dining table and there are sofas dotted about the spacious aircraft.
There are several bedrooms on board and even a golden throne – around 400 passenger seats were removed to craft the luxury plane.
Al-Hilal have gone all out to accommodate Neymar with the forward set to earn a staggering £2.5million a week.
SunSport understands that the former Barcelona star asked Al-Hilal’s owners for three luxury cars for himself and for his entourage to have four Mercedes G Wagons and a Mercedes van with a driver.
Neymar also requested that the driver be available round the clock every day of the year for his himself, friends and family.

At home, Neymar called for his fridge to be filled all the time with Açaí juice by his favourite brand, but also Guarana drinks for his friends and family.
He also asked for three saunas to be in the house as well as five full-time workers, including a sous chef to help his personal chef from Brazil and for two people to take care of the cleaning.
A source has also told SunSport that Neymar asked for all the costs of his stays at hotels, restaurants, and cities that he may visit on days off are covered by Al-Hilal’s owners.
