LIONEL MESSI has reportedly outbid arch nemesis Cristiano Ronaldo for the world's most expensive car.

The Barcelona superstar - who recently underwent more tests on his kidneys - is believed to have paid a staggering £24.8million for the 1957 Ferrari 335 S Spider Scaglietti.

Website Sport claim the car's owner Alessandro Proto auctioned off the motor to an anonymous buyer - said to be five-time Ballon d'Or champ Messi.

Champions League Final: Arsenal vs. Barcelona

 Tonight is the night of the Champions League final between Arsenal and Barcelona, but still no tickets for the game. Unfortunately, tickets are more difficult to come by than Super Bowl tickets because the scale of the match is absolutely phenomenal. Between having a Vice-President of Heineken America [Heineken sponsors the game] and the ex-captain of Arsenal working to find Gary and I tickets, I gave it my best to get to the game. As deflating as it was when neither source came through in the end [tickets were sold on the black market for +3500 euros!!], I can at least walk away knowing I gave it my best. I remember hearing something about how the world is run by those who show up, but that says nothing for all the times you show up and are turned down!
