Lionel Messi

Lionel Messi is a player who needs no introduction. He stands alongside Cristiano Ronaldo as one of the two best players in the world and his £365,000-per-week salary is entirely justified. Each week, he plays sublime football which attracts fans from around the globe to come and witness the spectacle up close, and he doesn't disappoint.

Messi might have had a somewhat dour World Cup, but to expect one man to carry an entire team of players is unfair. Football is a team effort, and when the chemistry is strong between the players, that's when the magic happens.

The Argentine's huge wages may only increase in the future as the club bids to hang onto the footballing icon for as long as possible.
