Lionel Messi refused to be photographed with Barcelona president Joan Laporta during his final day at the club.

ESPN reports as he had photographs taken with his family in the club's trophy room, Messi declined having a shot taken with Laporta.

The pair were seen shaking hands after Messi's media conference, though observers say it was a cold farewell.

Laporta has insisted Barca didn't have room in their budget to secure him to a new deal.

Messi signed a two-year contract with PSG yesterday after being released by Barca over the weekend.
