The bond of Neymar and Lionel Messi transcended a playing field to become friendship. His time of glory in the Barcelona of Spain, they imagined, could be replicated with the landing of the Argentine striker to Paris Saint Germain, two seasons ago. But after his frustrating end this Saturday in the last match of this stage, it was the Brazilian attacker who acknowledged that the plans did not go as expected, in an emotional post that he dedicated to him on his social networks.
"Brother. it didn't go as we thought but we tried everything," the Brazilian star, injured for several months, wrote on Instagram.
"It was a pleasure to share 2 more years with you. Good luck in your new stage and may you be happy. I love you", completed the number ten of PSG, a day after the officialization of Messi's departure.

Neymar and Messi shared four seasons at Barcelona, between 2013 and 2017, in which they won, among other titles, a Champions League in 2015.
