Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has issued a farewell message to Paris Saint-Germain bound Neymar and has wished him luck for his future.
The 25-year-old forward told his Barcelona team-mates earlier today that he will be joining PSG and the Catalan giants released a statement, confirming the player’s desire to leave.
Barcelona have made it clear that PSG will have to pay his full €222m buy-out clause, but it is expected to be a formality and Neymar is expected to be presented as their latest addition at the weekend.
Messi has issued a heartfelt statement to bid farewell to his team-mate and admits that it was a joy for him to play in the same team as the Brazil captain.
The Argentine took to Instagram and wrote, alongside releasing short video: “It was an enormous pleasure to have shared all these years with you Neymar.
