LIONEL MESSI, Luis Suarez and Cesc Fabregas jetted off to Ibiza for the footy pals' annual holiday.
The sight of the star trio soaking up the sun on the Mediterranean has become a familiar sight in recent summers.
The three players and their families enjoyed a break in Ibiza in 2017 before a yacht trip off the Balearic resort in both 2019 and last summer.
Messi, 36, wife Antonella Roccuzzo, and sons Thiago, eight, Mateo, five, and Ciro, three, flew out to the island after a brief stopover in Barcelona.
The family had been holidaying in Miami and the Dominican Republic earlier this month following the Argentina star's Copa America triumph.
Joining them in Ibiza are Suarez, 34, and partner Sofia Balbi, 31, and their kids Delfina, Benjamin and Lauti.
Completing the jet set are Cesc Fabregas, 34, his wife, Daniella Semaan, 46, and children Lia, Capri and Leonardo.
The three families and their friends sweltered in the Ibiza sun aboard their yacht, occasionally hopping in the sea to play with a variety of gadgets.
According to the Mail, the Inspiration yacht they have rented costs a whopping £65,000-a-week.
The vessel sleeps eight people in four cabins and boasts a large sun pad, lounge dinette, a dining room, a sports flybridge, and several solariums.
Messi played with Fabregas at Barcelona for three years, until the Spaniard's 2014 move to Chelsea.
That year, Suarez signed for the Catalans and struck up a strong friendship with his fellow South American.
