Brazilian Playboy Model Made $600,000 Bid For Lionel Messi's Used Tissue

A Playboy model decided to "pose naked" with the snot rag used by Lionel Messi at his farewell press conference in Barcelona Following putting an ambitious proposal for the piece.

Messi's famous stint at Barça finally ended this summer after the Spanish club has been unable to recruit him to a fresh deal.

In the midst of Barcelona's financial crisis, the six-time Ballon d'Or Argentine legend was willing to cut his pay in half to agree to a new agreement.

However, La Liga's financial restrictions precluded Messi from continuing his contract at Barcelona, and the club captain joined PSG on a free transfer.

Messi wiped his eyes with a tissue as he got a spine-tingling greeting during his tearful press appearance in Barcelona.

The Ex-Barcelona captain’s utilised tissue would subsequently show up on a global auction website, that demanded a massive $1m asking price.

As per The Daily Star, Barcelona-loving Playboy model Luana Sandien revealed she offered $600,000 for the tissue.

“I make an offer of Six Lac Dollar to get the Lionel tissue gone [sic], and then the ad vanished,” she told.

Although I offered over than half of the demanded price with the hope that I would get and the poster will vanished after my following my entry, seemingly from nowhere.

The ad ended without providing any additional information regarding the case's result, so we don't sure if someone purchased the antique or if the seller abandoned the idea.

“I'm hoping I got it.”

The Brazilian model told that posing for Playboy Africa in a Barcelona jersey as "one of my favourite experiences."

According to the Daily Star, shirt sales have increased by 50% as a reaction of her Barcelona [shirt].

Sandien remarked after the Playboy publication was revealed, "I usually preferred Barcelona considering I reside in Spain, thus their impact here is greater."

Leo has been exercising with his new colleagues at Paris Saint-Germain since signing, however the Barcelona star has not yet done his debut for the Ligue 1 team.

The 34-year-old Argentine Icon might make his PSG start vs Reims on Sunday at the Stade Auguste-Delaune.
