Football legend Lionel Messi's exit from Barcelona was a heartbreaking moment for fans worldwide. Millions watched Messi as he bid a tearful goodbye to his club, in a public press meet, breaking down in front of the camera.

In a bizarre development, some reports say, the tear-soaked tissue, which Messi allegedly used to wipe his tears during the emotional speech at FC Barcelona, is on sale for an whopping price of $1 million.

An unknown person claims to have collected the used tissue, and has placed an online advertisement for the tissue's sale.

The individual is reportedly selling the tissue on a website called Meikeduo. He claims that the tissue included Messi's genetic material, which would allow people to clone the football player.

After 21 years at Barcelona, the 34-year-old footballer will now play for his new team, Paris Saint-Germain, which will reportedly pay him €35 million per season apart from other benefits.
