Barcelona superstar, Neymar Jnr has dedicated his new diamond tattoo to his only sibling, Rafaella Beckran

According to a post on his Instagram account, today, January 27, 2015, the former Santos star said he and his sister both got the new ink but only with different inscriptions.

Neymar’s tattoo has the word, ‘sorella’ (sister) while Rafaella’s has ‘fratello’ (brother) as they pay homage to each other with a diamond tattoo which is rare as it stands to remind them of their relationship.

‘The diamond tattoo I’ve got was done with my sister. We thought we’d get one done together because diamonds are rare and the feelings I have for my sister are rare, so we decided to pay homage to each other in that way. A diamond is a gemstone that is simple but beautiful. It is also a rare jewel that stands out and that is what catches my attention and reminds me of my relationship with Rafa.’

Neymar Jnr and Rafaella Beckran are the only the children to Nadine Santos and Neymar da Silva Sr.
