"Brother... it didn't turn out as we thought," Neymar sends farewell message to Lionel Messi

Lionel Messi has been on the receiving end of disappointing behaviour from fans for quite some time. In his final fixture for the French outfit, it also remained the same. Despite helping PSG to the 2022-23 Ligue 1 title in the previous match, it didn't change. The World Cup-winning Argentina captain hasn't received good treatment this season especially after Argentina defeated France in the World Cup Final 2022. Not only Messi, but the Brazilian magician Neymar also faced the same level of hate from the home fans.

Despite such behaviour from the fans, Messi has received support from his teammate and close friend Neymar. The Brazilian is also expected to depart PSG this summer. He took to Twitter to bid farewell to Messi and also shared some photos. "Brother... it didn't turn out as we thought but we tried everything. It was a pleasure to share 2 more years with you. Good luck in your new stage and be happy. I love you", Neymar wrote.

Hermano.. no salió como pensábamos pero intentamos de todo. Fue un placer compartir 2 años mas con vos.
Muchas suerte en tu nueva etapa y que seas feliz. Te quiero ❤️ #leomessi pic.twitter.com/6fkozlTUKi

Transfer Rumours of Neymar & Messi:

The Brazilian is linked to Manchester United and Manchester City and even Newcastle United have reportedly entered the transfer race to sign the Brazilian. Meanwhile, Messi has been linked to Al Hilal, Inter Miami, FC Barcelona, Newcastle, and Chelsea. Initially, he was expected to join Barcelona, but the Catalans haven't submitted a formal offer yet and also haven't received the green signal from La Liga.

On the other side, Al Hilal are reported to be offering a huge sum of money. A move to the Premier League would see him answer critics who have earlier stated that the Argentine captain won't be available to replicate his playing style in the Premier League.

Joining Newcastle would guarantee Champions League football after they finished in fourth position in the Premier League. They ended the season with 71 points in 38 matches, packed with 19 wins, 14 draws, and five defeats. Chelsea finished in the 12th spot in the Premier League table, with 44 points in 38 matches, including 11 wins, 11 defeats, and 16 losses. So if Messi wants to enter Premier League, Newcastle United might be the destination.
