A seemingly ordinary paper napkin, bearing the historic agreement that secured Lionel Messi's future with FC Barcelona, sold for an astounding $966,400 (£762,400) at an auction conducted by Bonhams. This napkin, signed in 2000 when Messi was just 13 years old, fetched significantly more than its initial starting price of $380,000 (£300,000).
