Xtra Time Web Desk: Everyone knows about the friendship between Lionel Messi and Neymar. This friendship between the two superstars from Brazil and Argentina began during their time at Barcelona.
Even after reuniting at Paris Saint-Germain, this duo’s friendship continues to be evident. Upon their farewell, Messi presented Neymar with a gift of his own. However, the surprising part is that Neymar decided to sell the gift!
After playing their final PSG match, Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos were presented with special memorabilia by club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi. Neymar received this memento from Messi as a gift.
But Neymar chose to sell this gift. In Brazil, Neymar has his own foundation that works on various social causes and helps underprivileged children. It was for this foundation that Neymar received the prize from Messi.
According to reports from the French media outlet La Parisien, the gift was bought by a Brazilian journalist, YouTuber, and streamer named Casimiro for 158,000 euros.
As a result, Neymar utilised Messi’s gift for the benefit of disadvantaged children, aligning with the purpose of his foundation.
