As Lionel Messi joined a star-studded Paris Saint-Germain after leaving Barcelona, crowds of supporters thronged to the stadium in Paris as the former Barcelona star arrived for the contract signing. 

Messi arrived in Paris on a private jet earlier in the day with his wife and three children before going to a private hospital for a medical. 

It's symbolic that Messi will wear the No. 30 jersey, the same number he wore in his first two seasons with Barcelona before switching to No. 19 and then the iconic No. 10, which Neymar gets to keep at PSG.
