Rubiales is currently embroiled in a heated kiss storm in Spain as he refuses to resign after kissing Jenni Hermoso after the Women’s World Cup final.

Despite being suspended by Fifa, he has vowed to clear his name amid a sex assault probe into his actions.

Meanwhile, his mum also locked herself in a church and went on hunger strike earlier this week.

Now footage has gone viral showing Messi giving Rubiales a torrid time at the Nou Camp in April 2007.

The video shows a then 19-year-old Messi repeatedly dribbling past the Levante left-back.

Rubiales was even left facing the wrong way at one point after Messi ghosted past him.

Messi was unable to score or assist during the match, although Rubiales was booked in a 1-0 Barcelona victory.

The former full-back spent five years with Levante between 2003 and 2008, making all 53 of his LaLiga appearances for the club.

He later went on to play in Scotland, spending a month with Hamilton in 2009 before retiring.

Since hanging up his boots, he has worked for both the Spanish FA and Uefa, eventually becoming the former’s president.
