A napkin signed by Lionel Messi was sold at auction for 965 thousand dollars (87 million rubles). Editor’s Note), writes The Associated Press. We’ll tell you why this is unusual.
The thing is that the football player signed his first contract on this napkin in 2000, at the age of 13. This was done to reassure Messi’s father that the deal would go through. The agreement also includes the signatures of managers Gaggioli and Josep Maria Minghella, as well as Barcelona’s sporting director at the time, Carles Rexach.
By the way, auctions have become very popular lately. Thus, a painting by Claude Monet was sold at auction for almost 3 billion rubles, and the watch of the richest passenger on the Titanic was sold for 136 million rubles. But in our opinion, the craziest purchase is the grave next to Marilyn Monroe.
