The Spanish giants were knocked out of the competition by Roma earlier this week, when they threw away a 4-1 first leg quarter-final lead.

Roma's 3-0 win it Italy was enough to send the Blaugrana packing, with the Italians going through on the away goal ruling.

According to Spanish TV Show El Chiringuito, Messi was furious with Valverde's approach to the game, and questioned his methods in the dressing room after the clash.

The Argentine is believed to have made his way straight to the dressing room when the referee blew the final whistle, where he waited for his teammates and manager.

It has been claimed that Messi and Valverde have had no issues up until this point, which could make the next few weeks at the club interesting.
