PSG have started the season extremely well under Christophe Galtier. They have already scored 21 goals in their opening four games as Galtier looks to mould a team that can win the Champions League.

Messi took to his Instagram account to share a beautiful photo of him and his beautiful wife, Antonella Rocuzzo, together with their three kids in a hotel setting.

Everybody was clad in white save for Messi, who donned a black T-shirt. The family spent their summer vacation in diverse locations, including Ibiza, before Messi jetted back to Paris for pre-season training.

This will be Messi's second season at PSG and he will be hoping for better tidings than last time out, where he failed to hit his usual high standards. This season, there have been signs that the world can see the usual Messi again.
