Playboy Model Places Huge Bid For Messi's Farewell Handkerchief

Playboy model Luana Sandien wants to get her hands on the infamous handkerchief that Lionel Messi used to soak up the tears and snot that poured out when the Barcelona legend announced August 8 that he was leaving the club. Messi described the moment as a “a cold shower” and called it “the hardest moment of his career."

The tears streamed down. Last week, it was announced that the tissue Messi used to wipe away the pain would go up for auction and that piqued the interest of Ms. Sandien, a huge Barcelona fan. A price tag of $1 million was put on the handkerchief, but that didn't stop Luana from throwing a bid on the table for the seller to think about.
