Luis Suarez is the latest star according to Football Weeks to bid a very public farewell to Neymar, who has agreed a five-year deal with Paris Saint-Germain.
The superstar winger’s move to Ligue 1 actually happened, and last year’s runners-up paid a world record €222m to buy him out of his Nou Camp contract.
He was reported to have grown frustrated with life in Lionel Messi’s shadow, and with Messi still only 30, it will be a while yet before the little genius decides to hang up his boots.
The Samba star will move to the Parc des Princes and undoubtedly hold the Brazilian he so craves, but Neymar may struggle to strike up a better bromance with anyone than what he had with former Liverpool star Suarez.
The Uruguay international, along with Messi, was super close with Neymar and the three formed perhaps the deadliest striker force football anyone has ever seen.
Suarez wrote on Instagram: “My friend i wish you the best in everything that comes!!! Also thank you for your support, for everything that i learned with you and for the unique moments that we spent together!!!! Keep like this and never change love you little bro.”
Barca are likely already working on signing a replacement for Neymar – the club will have a war chest to play with and have been linked with moves for Paulo Dybala, Philippe Coutinho, Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele.
