Paris Saint-Germain is currently one of the richest and most powerful football clubs in the world, and they have the strongest star squad in the world.
Now that Paris has taken Messi under its wing, it is difficult to find a European club with many well-known stars like Paris.
Paris are also the world's highest-paid team, having made some important acquisitions in this summer's transfer window, having signed Wijnaldum, Ramos, Donalum, Hakimi and Messi.
With the exception of Hakimi, the remaining four players are all free transfers, which means that Paris Saint-Germain do not need to spend a lot of money on transfer fees, but the salary is still paid as usual.
Let's take a look at what the weekly salaries of Paris Saint-Germain players are.
17 Abdul Diallo – £90,000 a week
Centre-back Diallo joined Paris Saint-Germain from Borussia Dortmund for €32 million, and in the 2020-21 season he played for Paris Saint-Germain in 36 games.

14. Paredes – £140,000 a week

11, Icardi – weekly salary of 170,000 pounds
Paris striker Icardi's signing with Paris Saint-Germain will continue until 2024, with the Argentina international having had a great time at Inter Milan before joining Paris Saint-Germain on loan in 2019.

8. Ramos – £200,000 a week
Ramos' move to Paris Saint-Germain was one of the most shocking transfers in the summer transfer window, with the 35-year-old opting not to renew his contract with Real Madrid instead deciding to take on a new challenge in France.
During his 16 years at Real Madrid, Ramos won 5 La Liga titles and 4 Champions League titles. Ramos' experience will make Paris Saint-Germain a force to be reckoned with in Europe.
