Barcelona wages: How much do Messi, Suarez, Griezmann and co earn?
Barcelona return to La Liga action against Mallorca - but how much do the players earn? Express Sport looks at Barcelona's wage bill.
La Liga is back underway following the coronavirus-enforced hiatus as Barcelona seek to retain their title. The season resumes with Barca top of the table, two points ahead of rivals Real Madrid.
Lionel Messi has once again been the Catalans' star performer.
The Argentine forward is the leading goalscorer in La Liga this season with 19 goals.
He'll be hoping to pick up where he left when Barca resume their title defence at Mallorca.
Messi was a slight doubt for the clash with a thigh injury but head coach Quique Setien has since confirmed the star will be fit to start.

"He is fine. He had a minor issue but there have been others that have also had problems after such a long break. He stopped [training] as a precaution," said Setien.
"If we risk players unnecessarily, they could end up being out for two weeks.
"And that would mean they would miss four of the 11 games we have left."
It will come as no surprise to fans that Messi is the club's top earner.

The 32-year-old reportedly takes home a staggering £1.2million per week, with his current deal running until the end of the 2020/2021.
A clause in his contract that would have allowed him to leave for free this summer expired last month.
Behind Messi on the wage list is Antoine Griezmann, who earns a reported £795,000 per week.
Griezmann became the Catalans' latest marquee signing when he joined from Atletico Madrid for £108m last summer.
Luis Suarez is also high up on the list, taking home a weekly wage of £405,000.
