Disgraced FIFA officials, suspended UEFA chief Michel Platini and Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi were among the names found on Sunday in leaked documents that reveal offshore financial dealings.

Documents also bring to light how some players use offshore companies to bank money from marketing deals.
