Lionel Messi could be set to earn as much as €20m a year, according to reports in the Spanish Press.
Mundo Deportivo believe that Barcelona are willing to offer the record-breaking forward new incentives to his deal that would see him become the best paid player on the planet.
Cristiano Ronaldo recently signed a new deal at Real Madrid that saw him become the best paid player in Spain – reportedly earning €14m.
But the Catalan newspaper claim that the Blaugrana are hoping to add some performance-based additions to his contract to bump up his wage.
