Neymar, 31, spends much of his free time at the property in Rio de Janeiro with family and friends.

The mansion includes a sprawling garden with a host of amenities for the Paris Saint-Germain star to enjoy.

He can enjoy swimming in any of his multiple swimming pools.

While the football star and pals can race around a custom-built go-kart track.

Perhaps Neymar and girlfriend Bruna Biancardi could even enjoy a rally or two on his private tennis court.

The mansion’s grounds also features an artificial lake, which has caused issues.

According to Brazilian outlet Uol Sport, his dad Neymar Sr was arrested for “environmental crime” after allegedly carrying out “banned” work on the mansion.

Following a complaint, it is claimed that Neymar Sr was arrested in an operation carried out by Mangaratiba City Hall and the Civil Police.

Mangaratibas secretary of the environment Shayenne Barreto is claimed to have issued a fine of five million Brazilian reals, equal to £822,000.

Neymar Sr is believed to have been released.

The problem appears to stem from the artificial lake which reportedly “promotes deforestation, rock breaking and diversion of a river”.

Mangaratiba’s Municipal Environment Department are said to have led the operation.

They are understood to have been supported by the Environmental Military Police and agents of the municipality’s Environmental Protection Group.

Neymar Jr and Bruna announced in April that they are expecting their first child together.

All doesn’t seem well, however, after the footballer recently took to Instagram to apologise for making a “mistake”.

Posting a snap of himself with Bruna, 29, he wrote: “Bru, I do this for both of you and your family.

“Justify the unjustifiable. No need to. But I need you in OUR lives.

“I saw how much you were exposed, how much you suffered with all of this and how much you want to be by my side. And I stand beside you.

“I made a mistake. I did wrong with you all.

“I dare say that I make mistakes every day, on and off the pitch. But my mistakes in my personal life I resolve at home, in my privacy with my family and friends…

“All of this hit one of the most special people in my life. The woman I dreamed of having by my side, the mother of my child. It hit your family, which is now my family. It hit your privacy in such a special moment that is maternity.”
