The friendship between Lionel Messi and Neymar has been rarely witnessed in soccer history. Both have developed a unified bond with each other. Even when a major transfer in 2017 separated them, their friendship continued after La Pulga joined him in Paris. While they may have been separated again, their bond remains strong. In fact, it can be seen from the Brazilian’s latest comments.

Certainly, a lot is happening in Neymar Jr’s life. While he continues to bounce back from his season-ending injury, the player’s life is occupied with his significant half Bruna Biancardi. The soccer couple recently took center stage after announcing they are expecting a baby girl. While the couple has already decided on a name for their upcoming daughter, Ney has already thought about the name of his next boy. Interestingly, he’ll be naming his potential son after his best friend, Messi.

The excitement surrounding the birth of their daughter has occupied both Neymar and Biancardi. It was just recently, the couple hosted an empathic baby shower. Both are busy with the birth of their upcoming daughter. However, in such a moment, Ney took some time for a rather different thing.

Surprisingly, the PSG No.10 has already decided on a name for his next son. And the talented playmaker dreams to name his next son after his best friend, Lionel Messi. He expressed his desire recently while having a conversation on one of the TV shows. Indeed, it shows how much the Argentinian superstar means to him.

Moreover, even if someday Neymar gets a son, naming him after the World Cup winner will be a brilliant tribute. Furthermore, it will be interesting to see his son have Messi’s name, while also possessing Neymar’s DNA. That child will definitely rule the soccer world if he intends to become a star like his dad.
