“The love for the club is good, but to confirm it is even better,” Payet said at a press conference, which was also attended by coach André Villas Boas and club president Jacques-Henri Eyraud. In the 2021/22 season, the 36-time French national team champion and vice-champion of 2016 should earn 30 percent less than this year.
Olympique is a salary saving, last week the club received a fine of three million euros from UEFA for violating the rules of financial fair play.
