Neymar (Football Super Star);
A Spanish court has dismissed a fraud and corruption case against football
superstar Neymar and his father.The case had been brought by the Brazilian
investment fund DIS, which formerly owned the transfer rights to the
24-year-old forward.The company claimed it was short-changed when Neymar
transferred from Brazilian club Santos to Barcelona in 2013.Neymar and his
father, who acts as his agent, have both denied any wrongdoing.In a separate
case, Barcelona was forced to pay a fine of 5.5m euros ($6.1m; £4.7m) last
month because of tax irregularities in Neymar's transfer from Santos.Since
moving to the Nou Camp, he has won two La Liga titles, two Copa del Rey
trophies, the Champions League, the European Super Cup, the Spanish Super Cup
and the Club World Cup.At Barcelona, he forms a powerful attacking trio with
Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.In a separate case in Barcelona this week, Messi
was sentenced to 21 months in jail for tax fraud.The Argentine football great
has appealed against the court's ruling.
