In the past, Ronaldo and Messi were the two players with the most impressive salaries in Europe. However, as they gradually aged and left continental football, young and talented faces like Mbappe “succeeded”.
As in Football Planet’s squad of players with the highest salary in Europe for the 2023/24 season, Mbappe appears. The French striker is even the name with the most impressive salary compared to other colleagues. Specifically, Mbappe was paid up to 72 million euros/year by PSG. This number is nearly double that of the second ranked person, Frenkie De Jong, specifically 37.5 million euros/year.
Mbappe probably will not continue to stick with PSG when the 2023/24 season ends. There is a high possibility that the star born in 1998 will land at Real Madrid. The French striker’s salary is expected to increase.
Looking at Haaland, the star most compared to Mbappe, he is not even in the squad of players with the highest salary in Europe in the 2023/24 season. Currently, the Norwegian striker receives a salary of 22.8 million euros at Man City.
Notably, PSG contributes the most players to this squad. In addition to Mbappe, there is also defender Lucas Hernandez (19 million euros/year) and striker Ousmane Dembele (36.3 million euros/year).
MU has a very high salary fund in Europe but they only contribute 1 player to this squad. That is midfielder Raphael Varane with a salary of 20.6 million euros/year.
