The relationship between Neymar and Messi has been cultivated and become as close as brothers since they were at Barcelona. Until the reunion at PSG and then the Argentine player left to go to Inter Miami, the bond between the two was still very strong.
That even prompted Neymar to name his next son Messi, as a way of honoring the owner of the 7 Golden Balls. This intention was personally confirmed by the 31-year-old superstar on the live broadcast of CazeTV channel.
“Messi is one of my best brothers. Before becoming a team-mate, I was a fan of Messi. Now he is both my friend and my idol. Later, if there are more son, I will name him Messi.”
However, Neymar will have to wait a little longer to be able to welcome “little Messi” into his family. Because his soon-to-be child shared with girlfriend Bruna Biancardi has been identified as a girl.
The child will be named Mavie, Neymar’s second child after David Lucca da Silva Santos – the first son he had with his ex-girlfriend Carolina Dantas in 2011.
After Messi left, PSG’s MMN trio officially disbanded and there was a risk of only Neymar remaining. Because this club is promoting the sale of Mbappe to avoid losing everything next year.
For his part, Neymar confirmed his desire to stay with PSG despite the recent rumors of leaving: “I have a contract with PSG, and no one has informed me of anything. I will still be in Paris, no matter what.”
