Lionel Messi ended up apologizing at PSG after what was the scandal over the two-week ban he received, commenting that he thought he was free after the game against Lorient, as had been happening in previous weeks, expressing that he had planned this trip to Arabia that had canceled in previous weeks, and that is now waiting for what the club decides, since there is no official statement about it.

Now everything indicates that Lionel Messi could reach Barcelona because they would be close to approving the economic plan so that everything can be balanced for his return to the Catalan club, since they would resign 200 million euros of costs to be able to accommodate both the salary of the footballer like the rest of the squad in the Financial Fair Play of La Liga.

But in all this context, we will count the footballer who became famous for kicking Lionel Messi in the Real Madrid vs. Barcelona classics on several occasions, and now away from the White House, we will count how many millions he received in the Merengue team.

Pepe is the footballer who became famous by kicking Lionel Messi in every classic that he had to play to stop him definitively and not cause problems for the White House, for which he ended up accumulating a real fortune after years of playing for Real Madrid being the maximum maker of fouls in the team.

How much money Pepe made in Madrid

Pepe received around 6 million euros per season and spent 10 seasons in the White House, so he will have received around 60 million euros at the expense of hitting Lionel Messi in each Real Madrid vs Barcelona that he had to play, being a boss of that defense and the dressing room.
