The Juventus Turin star is by far the highest paid player in Serie A.
This Friday, the Gazzetta dello Sport has revealed the salary of the Serie A teams this season. Unsurprisingly, the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo finds himself at the top of the ranking of the best paid players in the championship with a salary of more than 32 million euros per year, or the trifle of 650,000 euros per week. The five-time Ballon d’Or crushes the competition in this area, with earnings four times greater than the second highest paid player, Matthijs de Ligt. The 21-year-old center-back earns 8 million euros per year, while Paulo Dybala’s salary reaches 7.4 million annually.
But one of the most impressive statistics remains: Cristiano Ronaldo wins as much or more than the squad of four Serie A teams, namely Udinese, Hellas Verona, Spezia and Crotone. A new record to put to his credit.
With the five highest paid players in the championship, Juventus Turin logically dominates the ranking of clubs with the highest payroll with a total of 240 million euros, ahead of Inter Milan (151 million) and AS Roma ( 113 million).
