PSG's Highest-Paid Stars After Messi's Arrival
12 August, 2021
Lionel Messi was officially unveiled as a Paris Saint-Germain player on Wednesday afternoon, but where does he rank among the club highest earners?
The Argentine completed his move to the French outfit after he was unable to return to FC Barcelona when his contract expired.
While the Catalan outfit were unable to afford the Argentine, PSG have now got Messi on a two-year contract that will see him earn €35 million a year, according to various reports.
That amount is not enough to make Messi the highest earner at the club, as that position is held by his good friend and club-record signing Neymar who earns a reported €52 million a year.
Kylian Mbappe rounds out the top three at the Paris outfit as the French World Cup winner takes home €15 million a year, although he is in the final year of his contratc.
Former Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos is the only other new PSG signing to feature in the top 10 heading into the 2021/2022 season.
