Overview
- The document is dated June 12, 2023 and was certified at Notary No. 9 in Porto Alegre, with Brazilian outlet GZH previously reported to have confirmed its authenticity.
- Images of the will have circulated online as some reports identify the testator as Altemir Francisco Da Silva, a 31-year-old entrepreneur in poor health with no spouse or children.
- Media estimates suggest the estate could be worth roughly $846 million to about $1 billion, though the exact value has not been officially disclosed in the document.
- Under Brazilian practice the provisions would take effect only after the testator's death and require judicial or notarial validation, which could lead to legal and tax complexities.
- The entrepreneur has cited identification with Neymar and parallels in father–son relationships as reasons for naming him, while the player has not publicly acknowledged receiving any formal contact.
