Unlike Messi's 50 million, what Mbappé earns with his businesses in the USA

Lionel Messi marked a great event when, months after winning the World Cup in Qatar, he decided to leave elite soccer to move to a less competitive league like Major League Soccer. At 36 years old, the former Barcelona player moved to Inter Miami, a team that was last in the eastern conference of the competition. Messi's last months in France were not the best, as he received various hostilities from the Paris Saint Germain ultras, in addition to the excessive criticism that came from the local press.

From the first moment it was spread that Lionel Messi was going to earn 50 million dollars per year in the United States. However, it was always known that there were many complements that made up that contract, such as agreements and facilities to invest in real estate businesses or percentages of subscriptions to the network that broadcasts the MLS.

Recently, the Miami Herald published that he earns almost 20 and a half million dollars per year. However, it is very likely that with the bonuses and complements the figure that was initially released will be reached.

It is clear that any figure that has been known about what Messi earns at Inter Miami does not include his personal sponsor contracts. The former Barcelona player is the face of many of the most important brands in the world, whether in the field of sports clothing, soft drinks and the world's leading fashion brands.

Mbappé's businesses in the United States

In 2022, Kylian Mbappé created the Zebra Valley production company together with WME Sports and installed its headquarters in the city of Los Angeles. The production company is dedicated to a curious activity: helping young people find their vocation, as The Hollywood Reporter revealed at the time. As soon as he had started his new venture, Mbappé became associated with the NBA.

Although it is not known precisely how much his company invoices in the United States, it is known what Kylian Mbappé's image and all his contracts generate, without taking into account the one he has with PSG. According to the latest public accounts of KEWJF (the company that brings together all of Mbappé's businesses), in 2022, the Frenchman had a turnover of 12.2 million euros.
