Lionel Messi's shadow looms over Barcelona figuratively and financially, with the cash-strapped Spanish club still required to pay the Argentine £33million in loyalty bonuses - despite his move to Paris Saint-Germain.

The 34-year-old bid an emotional farewell to Catalonia last week, with the LaLiga giants financially unable to re-sign Messi having agreed terms over a two-year deal to remain at the Nou Camp.

In a whirlwind few days, Messi has now completed a move to PSG, with the French club agreeing to pay the Argentine £1m-per-week to join Mauricio Pochettino's star-studded squad.
