The astounding sum of money Messi receives from his pay annually: You’re not going to believe it.
With a deal worth over $20 million per year from Major League Soccer team Inter Miami, Lionel Messi is the most paid player.
Based on figures given by the MLS Players Association on Thursday, he earns more than the combined teams of 25 of the league’s clubs.
At $41.7 million, Inter Miami has one of the largest payrolls in the league. Apart from Messi, the team also employs high-earning players like as Jordi Alba, Luis Suárez, and Sergio Busquets. On the other hand, other teams, including as Atlanta and the Los Angeles Galaxy, have cut their payrolls from the prior season.
Senior roster players in the Major League Baseball (MLS) typically earn a basic salary of $513,075 and get an average of $594,389 in guaranteed pay. Of the participants, just 13% make at least $1 million, while 26% make less than $100,000.
$20,446,667 is Messi’s guaranteed pay, which consists of a $12 million basic salary plus many incentives. The enormous sum of money that the Argentine World Cup champion earns from sponsorships, endorsements, and commercial partnerships from brands like Apple and Adidas is not included in the players’ union calculations.
The Italian striker Lorenzo Insigne of Toronto, who was MLS’s highest paid player before to Messi’s arrival, came in second on the list with a $15.4 million guaranteed salary from the Canadian team. With $8.8 million guaranteed, Messi’s Spanish colleague and former Barcelona midfielder, Sergio Busquets, is the third most paid player in the league.
