All defendants have denied wrongdoing. The Brazil striker arrived at the court in Barcelona wearing sunglasses and a black suit and tie. Neymar’s father, who also is his agent, was among those arriving alongside the player. The trial comes nearly a month before the World Cup opens on Nov. 20 in Qatar. It is expected to last until the end of the month.

On Sunday, Neymar scored his ninth French league goal of the season in first-half stoppage time to lead PSG to a 1-0 win over Marseille in French football’s biggest game.
