It's no secret that Neymar and his sister Rafaella have a close relationship after the Barcelona star revealed a tattoo of his sibling on his right arm last month. 

And keen to return the gesture, the Brazil international's sister has had the 23-year-old's eyes inked on her left arm.

The latest design was revealed by tattoo artist Adao Rosa, who took to his Instagram page to post a couple of snaps.

'This is the tattoo that I have done on my loving friend @rafaella, a homage to her idol and her brother @neymarjr,' Rosa wrote.

Neymar has recently been in Las Vegas and he was photographed with an Octagon girl at the UFC International Fight Week Pool Party at Liquid Pool on Friday.

The Barcelona superstar endured a disappointing Copa America with Brazil this summer when he was sent off against Colombia but seemed in high spirits during his holidays. 

Earlier on Saturday, it was revealed the Brazil international's move to the La Liga giants from Santos could end up costing the club £160million.

Prospective CEO Joan Oliver, who Joan Laporta intends to make CEO should he be re-elected president, said during a presentation of their future economic plans said: 'I think when you look at [Barca's] financial outlook for the coming years, it leaves a question mark – how much the final price of Neymar will be. 

'The cost so far is €100m (£72m) and court proceedings may add a further €122m (£88m) in the way of financial liabilities. Neymar could end up costing €222m (£160m).'
