Lionel Messi and Cesc Fabregas enjoy the Spanish sun together with their families in Formentera on holiday

It's been three seasons now since they were last team-mates, but that hasn't stopped Cesc Fabregas and Lionel Messi's friendship from blossoming.

With their respective football seasons over, the pair are currently enjoying their summer holidays before pre-season begins next month.

And Barcelona superstar Messi and Chelsea midfielder Fabregas have decided to spend some of that together in Spain's Balaeric islands.
