BARCELONA host Paris Saint-Germain in a tasty-looking Champions League clash on Tuesday night – with their combined XI worth a staggering £536million.
The two sides famously met in the last-16 stage in the 2016-17 tournament, with the Spaniards winning a thrilling tie 6-5.
Having lost the first-leg at the Parc des Princes 4-0, Barcelona needed a miracle to progress.
And they got just that as they stormed to a last-gasp 6-5 win, scoring THREE times from the 88th-minute onwards to book their spot in the last-eight.
Fans can only dream of another tie that exciting, but with some huge names on show, there’s always the chance for fireworks.
We take a look at a combined XI of Barcelona and PSG stars, worth over half a billion pounds.
And that figure would be higher if not for injuries to Neymar, who’s valued at £115m by Transfermarkt and Ansu Fati (£72m).
But who makes the cut in terms of pure value? Check out the team below…
GK – Marc-Andre ter Stegen

ONE of two PSG stars in a back-three, Kimpembe is valued at £36m, keeping team-mate Thilo Kehrer (£22.5m) out of the XI.

RM – Lionel Messi
11
Team: Barcelona
Value: £72m
SET to leave Barcelona a free this summer, Messi is only valued as ‘low’ as £72m due to his contract having just over four months left to run.

Team: PSG
Value: £54m
ONE of only two midfielders in both squads combined to be valued at over £50m, Verratti beats team-mates such as Danilo Pereira (£21.6m) and Idrissa Gueye (£16.2m) to the XI.

CAM – Antoine Griezmann
11
Team: Barcelona
Value: £54m
DESPITE missing some huge names through injury, including Neymar, Fati and Philippe Coutinho, this XI still boasts a fearsome front-three.
