Lionel Messi flies to Paris with his wife Antonella

Lionel Messi is currently flying down to Paris to seal his move to Paris Saint-Germain after reaching an agreement with the French club to sign a two-year deal after leaving Barcelona.

The 34-year-old was pictured at Barcelona airport alongside his wife Antonella and their three children, Thiago, eight, Mateo, five, and Ciro, three.

Antonella later posted a selfie alongside her husband as they sat in their private jet waiting to fly to France.

A press conference is set to take place on Wednesday at the Parc des Princes.

France’s highest tax bracket is 45 per cent and so Messi’s gross annual salary will be in the region of €63m (£53m), taking his gross earnings to just over £1m a week.
