Lionel Messi has signed a two-year contract with Paris St-Germain after leaving Barcelona.

The 34-year-old's deal also has the option of a third year.

Messi left Barca - the only club he has played for - as they were unable to afford a new deal under La Liga's financial fair play rules.

Considered one of the greatest players of all time, Messi scored a record 672 goals in 778 games for Barca, the club he joined as a 13-year-old.

He has won the Ballon d'Or a record six times and lifted 35 trophies with the Catalan club.

He becomes PSG's fourth free-transfer signing this summer after the arrivals of Netherlands midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, Spain defender Sergio Ramos and Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

He will also join players such as Neymar and Kylian Mbappe at PSG.
