But the legend is happy to be a buoy wonder as he as he promotes a voyage labelled “72 hours of daring and joy on board with one of football’s greatest idols”.
Neymar is the ambassador for an extravagant cruise named ‘Ney Em Alto Mar’, which means Ney on the High Seas.
The trip from December 26 to 29 – perfectly timed for the Xmas sails – is due to start and finish at Santos.
That’s the coastal area in the state of Sao Paulo where the 31-year-old launched his playing days.
The cruise will make stops at Buzios, a holiday resort on an ocean peninsula east of Rio de Janeiro.
Organisers say “the planning of the rest of the itinerary will be established close to the departure date”.
They are clearly pumped up by having their country’s most famous current footballer at the helm.
Their excited message states: “You are our guest for the first edition of Ney em Alto Mar, a cruise that was already born being historic.
“Neymar Jr, always daring, led the idea with a star team and gave life to this project that – for sure – will be a success.
“It will be 3 days and 3 nights of daring and joy, celebrating everything that our Ney likes the most off the pitch.
“Unmissable attractions and unforgettable shows are coming, emulating every movement of our No.10 on the pitch.
“Get ready for 72 hours of fun on the high seas – only those in the mood to play are invited!
“How about bringing the contagious joy that only our idol has on the pitch to the ocean?”
In contrast, Neymar’s next port of call as a player is uncertain.
The former Barcelona striker is under contract at PSG until 2025 but there’s every indication he’s willing to jump ship.
Lionel Messi has already moved from Paris to Inter Miami.
And while it’s all hands on Dec in England as the race for Rice hots up, Premier League giants are also putting their oar in for Neymar.
Arsenal are narrow favourites to pip Manchester City to West Ham skipper Declan Rice.
But it’s mainly Manchester United and especially Chelsea who have been mentioned in connection with Neymar.
