New Barcelona boss Luis Enrique has a number of superstars in his team, but he know how to keep them in line and make sure they know he’s the boss.

In a bid to make sure they are punctual, Enrique has threatened to fine his players – even if they are just one minute late on matchday.

But how much will it cost the players? A ridiculously low £300.

And that’s not all. The fine will be doubled every game they arrive a second later than the fixed time.

Players will also be fined £150 if they arrive late for other events like meetings, training sessions or appointments. This too will be doubled every time they repeat the offence.

Wonder how much it would affect a player like Lionel Messi who earns almost £300,000 per week – a thousand times the fine amount!
