Real Madrid's annual salary exposed: capped at 10.8 million, if Mbappe wants to join, he needs to cut his salary by 42%

In the summer of 2024, Real Madrid's number one target is still Mbappe. On November 4, the newspaper "As" wrote an article analyzing Real Madrid's salary structure. The newspaper pointed out that Real Madrid can only offer Mbappe an annual salary of 35 million euros at most, which has upset the balance of the salary structure. However, such treatment is difficult to attract Mr. Mu.

Spain Radio 6 previously revealed that if Mbappe joins Real Madrid, the annual salary after tax will be 35 million euros (70 million before tax). This is much lower than PSG's contract, where Mbappe earns more than 60 million a year after tax. Signing with Real Madrid means that he will have to take a 42% pay cut.

According to the newspaper As, Mbappe's arrival at Real Madrid will cause a small earthquake in the dressing room - his salary is simply too high.

Today's Real Madrid, the highest annual salary is Alaba with 10.8 million euros; This is followed by Cross with 10.7 million. Bellingham, who joined this summer, has an annual salary of 10 million, and Vinicius, who has just renewed his contract, has an annual salary of 10 million. This is the only 4 superstars in the Real Madrid team with an annual salary of 10 million.

Pot 2 is 8 million euros: Militão, Courtois, Rudiger; Pot 3 is 6 million euros: Tchouameni, Mendy, Rodrygo.

The high salaries of Real Madrid's potential players are all based on "playing". When Vinicius and Militão first came to Real Madrid, their annual salaries were 1.3 million and 1.5 million respectively, and now they are 10 million and 8 million; Rodrigo's salary has also increased several times. For the sake of relative dynamic equilibrium, there are players who leave to make room for wages; Players who perform well can get a salary increase.

"As" newspaper said that in terms of salary space, Real Madrid is careful to calculate. At the beginning, Benzema, Ramos, Bale, and Hazard were the four superstars, and their annual salaries were all 15 million euros after tax; After the departure of Isco (8 million after tax) and Asensio (8 million after tax), Real Madrid's salary space was further released, creating conditions for Mbappe to join.

Back to Mbappe.

"As" newspaper said that Real Madrid's annual salary of 35 million is not enough to impress Mbappe. However, Real Madrid are willing to break with the club's tradition of Mbappe receiving 100% of the image rights. In the past, Real Madrid and players held 50% of the image rights each, and Real Madrid was forced to compromise for the sake of Mbappe.

For Mbappe, Real Madrid's commercial value is inevitably higher than that of Paris Saint-Germain. Mbappe's annual commercial endorsement income is around 20 million euros, and if he joins Real Madrid, he will be greatly increased to make up for the vacancy in his annual salary. Add a signing fee of 50 million to 100 million euros, which can also be spread evenly over the annual salary.
