While Mbappé earns 72 million, the surprising salary that Barcelona offers to Messi

Kylian Mbappé knew how to be the great protagonist of the 2022 summer transfer market. For months the signing of 'Donatello' by Real Madrid as a free agent had been taken for granted, but finally the Frenchman ended up rejecting the White House and signed a stratospheric renewal of 72 million euros per season with PSG, which triggered a deep rejection of the Merengues fans against the striker.

Now, that starring place as a free player in a transfer window will go to Lionel Messi, although on this occasion all the rumors suggest that he will be a FC Barcelona footballer again. However, the delicate economic situation of the Catalan team will force the captain of the Argentine team to be inferior to the current one.

As reported by the portal 'Relevo', the Rosario will receive a salary of 13 million euros per season. Although it is a low amount for what Messi has been used to, the reality is that the 'Flea' will have no problem accepting it, since his priority is elsewhere: his and his family's comfort in the city that sheltered them during almost all his life and the chance to continue competing at the highest level in Europe.

Who is the footballer with the highest salary in La Liga?

The return of Lionel Messi will once again expose one of the most striking data in Spanish football. Despite the fact that many might believe that the highest salary in the championship should not come from Karim Benzema, Vinicius, Robert Lewandowski or Antoine Griezmann; The truth is that the player who earns the most is Eden Hazard, a Belgian winger who came as a figure and today is practically erased by Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid.
