Revealing the huge amount of money Messi has earned since joining Inter Miami

"Messi is currently the highest paid player in the history of MLS (USA), since joining Inter Miami Club on July 15 with a 2-year contract and a salary of up to 54 million USD/year. However, this basic income can increase to 62 million USD thanks to other sponsorship contracts from the tournament," said the Daily Express .

"This amount cannot be compared to the huge offer from Al Hilal Club from the Saudi Pro League (Saudi Arabia), which invited Messi to earn up to more than 400 million USD/year last summer. But in the US, Messi currently has a happy life and the highest income in the history of MLS, with sponsorship contracts from Adidas and Apple TV signed for many years to come. These two sponsorship contracts alone, including shirt sales and online broadcasting revenue sharing between MLS and Apple TV, can help Messi earn an additional 20.4 million USD", the Daily Express shared.

Messi's base salary was shared by the MLS Players Association last October, with the Argentine star topping the list with a "fixed" salary of 54 million USD/year.

Messi's salary far surpasses the second-placed player, Lorenzo Insigne of Toronto FC, and the third-placed Xherdan Shaqiri of Chicago Fire FC, with salaries of $15.4 million and $8.1 million, respectively. Next in the top five highest-paid players in MLS are Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez of LA Galaxy ($7.44 million) and Federico Bernardeschi of Toronto FC ($6.3 million).

Messi's two famous teammates, Sergio Busquets, with a salary of only $1.75 million and Jordi Alba with a salary of $1.25 million, are not in the top 10 highest-paid players in MLS. However, Inter Miami is the team leading the salary bill with $39.419 million in guaranteed compensation.
