Lionel Messi and Cesc Fabregas have taken their families on a summer break to Ibiza and are relaxing in a £260,000 per week house-share on the Spanish island.
The pair, who played together at Barcelona at youth team level and in the first-team from 2011-2014, remain close despite their different career paths and are indulging on a holiday together with their families.
Messi has posted photos on his Instagram alongside wife Antonela Roccuzzo with their three boys – Mateo, nine, Thiago, six, and Ciro, four – and Fabregas is with wife Daniella Semaan and their three kids – daughters Lia and Capri and son Leonardo.
The two couples were dining at the exclusive IZAKAYA restaurant on Tuesday night, overlooking the stunning Ibiza marina.

The expensive mansion has six bedrooms, a gym and a 20m swimming pool, according to a report in Spanish outlet Diario AS, with 22 members of staff on hand too.
The two families have also been enjoying time on a £8,600 a day yacht called the Shalimar II in the Mediterranean.
The 25m long yacht reportedly has four cabins, luxury sofas on the exterior and a special VIP suite too.
Both Messi and Fabregas attended the wedding of former team-mate Jordi Alba in Seville at the weekend alongside a host of current and former Barca stars – and now continue to relax after the gruelling 2021-22 season.

Messi, 34, is relaxing after his first season at PSG – as well as a victory in the Finalissima with Argentina at Wembley on June 1 – while Fabregas, 35 is currently unattached having been released by Monaco.
Fabregas insisted recently that he wanted to continue playing, saying: ‘First, I still want to play. I don’t want to end like this. It’s been too bad a year to end like this. I want to have fun, to finish with good feelings.
‘Nothing is decided, I am listening. I am open to everything. Maybe the level of club will have to drop, but there are teams of a lower level in the Champions League. One thing is clear. I’ll go to a club where I’ll play, where they believe in me.’
