The 30-year-old attacker has put pen to paper on a new deal that will carry him through with the club until he is 34, with a mammoth €700m release fee.

Lionel Messi has signed his new contract with Barcelona, the Camp Nou side have confirmed.

Messi's new deal will run until 2021 and has a release clause of €700 million.


The 30-year-old finally put and end to the speculation, however, by penning a new deal that also included an astronomical €700million release clause, meaning there will be no repeat of the mistake which saw PSG trigger Neymar’s buyout clause last summer.

He made his debut 4,788 days ago.

He has played 602 games.

He has scored 523 goals.

He has won 30 trophies.
