Marseille’s Highest-Paid Players: Højbjerg and Rabiot Lead the Pack

Recent financial analysis reveals that Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Adrien Rabiot are expected to be the top earners at Olympique de Marseille this season. Both midfielders, who joined the club in recent months, are projected to receive annual salaries of around €500,000.

Following closely behind are Mason Greenwood, Ismaël Bennacer, and Geoffrey Kondogbia, each estimated to earn approximately €450,000 per year. The club’s captain, Leonardo Balerdi, is next on the list with an expected salary of €350,000, while former captain Valentin Rongier is thought to earn €330,000 annually.

Rounding out the top earners are Gerónimo Rulli, Amine Harit, and Amine Gouiri. Interestingly, only four of the ten highest-paid players were with Marseille prior to this season, highlighting the club’s recent transfer activity. Two of the top earners, Bennacer and Gouiri, joined the team just this winter.

This salary structure reflects Marseille’s ambitious recruitment strategy, bringing in high-profile players to bolster their squad. The significant investments in new talent demonstrate the club’s commitment to competing at the highest level in both domestic and European competitions.
