The salaries are clearly too high. They can never spend the money that football players earn in their lives.
Above all, the salaries in Saudi Arabia are inhumane, just how Neymar is allowed to live now and what he gets: a huge house, several luxury cars and a private jet. This is simply unfair and perverse, considering that many people live in poverty and there are many starvation deaths.
Doctors, nurses, firefighters, police officers and other important professions should be paid better because they are essential to survival and not just some footballers who can dribble a little well.
Mario Basler, a former football player, always says that all the money the players get is compensation for pain and suffering. They get so much money as compensation because they have no privacy in return. They are harassed everywhere, cannot go anywhere without being photographed and besieged and are therefore sometimes forced to stay at home in their beautiful villas. How you evaluate this statement from Mr. Basler is up to you. I will post a question on this topic soon.
But other sports also earn as much and even more. Formula 1 racing drivers, for example, earn much more. But the focus is specifically on football because this sport is by far the most popular and polarized.
