Mystery surrounds a recently discovered billionaire who has named sole heir to his entire 4.2 billion (R$6.1 billion) fortune, despite never having met the man.

Admiration for Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar Jr. has knowing no bounds, it would seem, with the Brazilian reportedly set to inherit a staggering 4.2 billion fortune from a mysterious billionaire from Porto Alegre. The news comes via newspaper Estado de Sao Paulo, who reportedly received a copy of the eccentric businessman's last will and testament.

Interestingly, the 83-year-old who has been described as a 'family man' and 'shy' and who prefers to remain anonymous, has no known links to either the 30-year-old football star or his family. This has led to widespread speculation as to the identity of the man behind the staggering bequest.

Neymar's camp has yet to comment on the revelation, while neither PSG nor FC Barcelona the club where Neymar spent his formative years and rose to global fame have acknowledged the mysterious inheritance.

Just weeks ago, the international football star faced accusations of profiting from alleged tax fraud in his native Brazil, which he denied. He is also currently involved in a defamation lawsuit against his former club Barcelona over claims he used illegal methods to force his move from Barcelona to PSG in 2017.

It remains to be seen what Neymar's intentions for the billions in unexplained wealth are, and whether he'll actively pursue collecting his newfound inheritance. For now, the Brazilian superstar is focused on trying to lead his nation to World Cup glory in Qatar, having scored once and assisted another in their 2-0 victory over Serbia in their opening game.

The will, which was drawn up in July, reportedly leaves all of the businessman's fortunes to the footballer, with no mention of any charities, other family members, or other potential beneficiaries. The news is undoubtedly a shocking development in the world of football, and one that's sure to raise a few eyebrows amidst the ongoing contentious legal battles Neymar faces.
