France forward of Cameroonian descent, Kylian Mbappé, is currently the highest-paid player in the Spanish La Liga.
With a huge gross salary of €2.67 million per month, the former PSG and AS Monaco star surpasses teammates Vinícius Jr. (€2.5 million) and Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski (€2.17 million).
Real Madrid defender David Alaba (€1.88 million), Englishman Jude Bellingham, and Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak (€1.67 million each) complete the top five earners.
Mbappe, who joined Real Madrid last summer, had a difficult time adapting to life in Spain. After finding his feet, he is now one of the most exciting players in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League.
The forward has scored 20 goals and provided three assists after making 26 appearances in the Spanish La Liga this season. In the UEFA Champions League, he has scored seven goals and provided one assist after making 12 appearances.
Meanwhile, Atlético Madrid’s Diego Simeone leads the pack among coaches with €2.17 million per month, far ahead of Real Madrid’s Carlo Ancelotti (€910,000) and Barcelona’s Hansi Flick (€830,000).
