According to the report on Sportsbible, Lionel Messi's mind-blowing last contract at Barcelona included a €72 million bonus to mark his unparalleled contributions to the Nou Camp landlords.
Josep Maria Bartomeu who was former Barcelona president is said to have arranged this bonus for Lionel Messi even though they did not have superb working relationship together.
Also, Barcelona would have even made massive money if they had sold Lionel Messi before the end of his contract, but they though they would be able to tie him down for another deal which failed.
Earlier, Briefly News had reported how following his switch to French club Paris Saint-Germain, Lionel Messi is currently staying at a lavish hotel located around Avenue Hoche district of central Paris which costs £17,000 per night.
The Argentine may have been disappointed to leave Spanish club Barcelona, but the hotel he is staying along with his family members may be helping them relax.
Upon his arrival in France, Messi was welcomed by thousands of PSG supporters as he is seen as a football god in the French capital.
He has joined the French giants on a two-year-contract after he was forced to leave childhood club Barcelona, ending his 21-year-stay.
Messi and his family members are now lodged in the £17,000 per night hotel room which has also looked after Winston Churchill, Walt Disney and Robert De Niro.
