The 2022 FIFA Final was the battle between two generational talents. Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe locked horns on one of the biggest sporting stages of the world. Now imagine both these legends forming a forward for the team alongside Neymar Jr.! That’s basically what the PSG club looks like.
Lionel Messi has been an integral part of Barcelona. The Argentinian forward had spent over a decade playing for the club. He was even a part of their juniors camp, in his younger days. In August 2021, Messi parted ways with the Spanish club and joined the ranks of PSG. Paris Saint Germain is known for having big pockets, which makes them buy big names in the world of football.
23-year-old Mbappe joined the French Club while he was still 17. Mbappe became a talking point for the football world from a very young age. The youngster joined the cash-rich club in 2018, following a massive $180 mn deal.
PSG got the services of Brazil star Neymar Jr. in 2017. The 30-year-old made it into a French club following a record-breaking deal in 2017. The deal was sealed at a transfer fee of $222 mn.
With the services of three of the best forwards from the current generation, PSG has a legendary attack. But who amongst them is paid the most?
Although Messi might be the biggest name in the elite list of forwards of PSG, he is not the most paid player. Messi’s estimated monthly salary is around €3.375mn, which is the second highest. Neymar Jr. who cracked a record-breaking deal is paid €4.083mn. Mbappe gets paid €2.220mn, making him the third highest-paid athlete at PSG.
