Over the last few years, the Liga MX has become one of the soccer championships in America with the highest number of stars. First-rate clubs, and also others without so many reflectors, got used to having figures in their professional teams, and that is due to the great economic power.

Currently, the Mexican tournament has players of international stature such as André-Pierre Gignac, Florian Thauvin, Guillermo Ochoa, Roger Martínez, Jefferson Montero, Alexis Vega, Jonathan Rodríguez and Rogelio Funes Mori, among many others. And fans ask. How much money do they make?

Although in many countries of the world, especially in South America, the salaries of footballers are managed privately, in Mexico they are numbers that quickly come to light. And yes, América and Tigres UANL, in addition to Rayados de Monterrey, are cadres with very high economic potential.

Currently, the goalkeeper of the Mexico National Team is the third highest paid element in Liga MX. Annually, it enjoys income close to 4.5 million dollars, which would be a figure not at all enviable compared to what is being paid in the Old Continent and in Major League Soccer.

For a very little difference, the historic Felinos striker receives a higher salary than Guillermo Ochoa. The CEMEX-led institution pays him a total of $ 4.6 million a year, making him the second paid player in the national championship. Florian Thauvin, with 5.3, is the one who wins the most.
