Brazilian soccer star Neymar Jr., who is 28 years old, will donate one million dollars to fight the SARS-CoV-2 virus pandemic in this country, where so far it has killed 299 people, SBT television reported. According to the television station, part of the money will go to the United Nations Children’s Fund and another to the solidarity fund directed by presenter Luciano Huck. The TV show also announced that the sports star did not want the action to be revealed. ‘We never reveal the athlete’s actions,’ said the footballer’s adviser. Previously, Neymar Jr. and Huck, along with singer Thiaguinho, surfer Gabriel Medina, actor Rafael Zulu and volleyball player Bruninho raised more than 280,000 dollars to help poor communities in Rio de Janeiro.
