Neymar's decision to fail to report for the start of Paris Saint-Germain's pre-season is set to cost him €375,000 (£340,000).
According to Marca , his actions will see him fail to pick up the huge clause in his contract rewarding him financially for good behaviour.
The clause for good behaviour made headlines when it was revealed by Football Leaks last year, with PSG responding to explain what it entailed.
"It is for exemplary behaviour towards sponsors, opponents, referees and officials and for punctuality and effort in training," the club said.
"Even respect towards the media is one of the parts of this behavioural bonus."
But Neymar's inability to report back to the French capital when he was supposed to is set to cost him.
The money will go to the PSG charity, with the clause utilised in contracts across France due to clubs not being allowed to fine players part of their fixed wages.
He is set to break his silence with an appearance on Brazilian TV on Friday afternoon.

Kind of sad he loses his behaviour bonus. Quite immature for a player of his age. Should still go to training. Kinda sad being the type of person to talk about a topic they know absolutely nothing about. It is common practice for French clubs though, it isn't unique to Neymar (or PSG for that matter).

In France employers can't fine players or dock pay according to labor laws, so they exploit a loophole by paying bonuses that can be voided. "All Paris Saint-Germain players have these kinds of bonuses in their contracts, even those in the academy and in other sections, and it common across France because clubs cannot fine players part of their fixed wages" Imagine talking about stuff you don't know about Will never be the best player in the world.
