Undoubtedly, the subject will cause talk in the locker room of Ligue 1 this Friday morning. Between those who will look at what is in the neighbor's bowl, the others who will be annoyed to have their wages disclosed in the public square and the envious, jealous or mocking leaders of the emoluments of their competitors, no one will remain insensitive . The daily L'Equipe revealed, as every year, its estimates of salaries for L1 clubs. Unsurprisingly, Paris SG offers the best salary conditions in the French championship.
8 PSG players exceed one million euros each month
Of the 10 highest paid elements, all evolve in the capital. Seventeen of the Top 30 wear the Paris SG tunic. The best-paid players are on the podium, Neymar (3.06 million euros gross monthly) ahead of Kylian Mbappé (1.345M €) and Thiago Silva (1.5M €). This trio is completed in the Top 10 by Edinson Cavani (1.345 million), Marquinhos, Marco Verratti (1.2 million each), Angel Di Maria (1.1 million) and Keylor Navas (1 million). All earn over a million monthly. Stratospheric figures but which are commonplace in European gratin clubs. To find traces of the first player who does not play at PSG, you have to count on Monaco and Wissam Ben Yedder, 12th, with 650,000 euros monthly. At the same level as the Parisian Ander Herrera. Note that ASM has three elements in the Top 30. In addition to the French international, we find Cesc Fabregas (14th), Tiémoué Bakayoko (19th) and Islam Slimani (27th). Suffice to say that life is good on the side of the Principality.
