Gossip on the Guys: Appreciating Messi

Truly, Messi's performance has been outstanding lately: grabbing the last minute winner against Osasuna, scoring a hattrick against Athletico Madrid... he's been so amazing, in fact, that the club has decided to acknowledge his greatness with a brand-new contract, even though his current one was renewed at the end of last season.
The new renewal will take place this summer, and Leo's buy-out clause will be upped from 150 million euros to 200. In addition, the new contract will include a raise in salary—the exact amount has not been reported. But Leo's already one of the highest paid players in the world and the highest paid on Barca, making 8 million Euros a year plus incentives; just to imagine how much he'll be getting now is quite dizzying.
