Lionel Messi has arrived at Barcelona airport with his family as he heads to Paris to complete his transfer to PSG.
The 34-year-old bid an emotional farewell to Barca at the weekend, giving a press conference in which he explained how he came to run down his contract at the Nou Camp.
Messi has been strongly linked with PSG in the last few days, with several sources suggesting it’s more or less a done deal, and it now looks like he’ll be in the French capital shortly.
The Argentina international will be an immense signing for PSG, where he can link up with fellow global superstars Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.
Messi has already had a huge impact for the Ligue 1 giants, who have gained 1.2 million social media followers in just the last three days.
