Lewandowskis wage has been increasing double every season since he signed iirc
Plus all the deferred payments players took during covid
Plus giving heavy contracts to their new signings.
Perhaps transfer fees are included.
You're right that the wage bill is too high. Looking at the numbers, every man on Inter's squad would be paid 10m which isn't true at all
they need to be reported to their respective leagues. Im guessing theres enough leaks from that alone to keep everyone 90% informed.
That roughly adds up to 200m, not 639m
has a point tho, Barca cannot have deferred the equivalent of an entire second squad in salaries, shurely. The 639m figure is ridiculous because it is ridiculous - even with Frankie, their current actual squad bill should be around half that
That's totally wrong. Wage bills are taken from annual accounts which are legally required to be released

you only need to release accounts when you are a public company - even then, individual wages arent detailed. You do need to provide the league a copy of each individual players contract tho, and that should (ideally) state their wages. Rangers basically got booted 4 leagues down for using hidden side contracts, catching Manchester City appears more difficult.

I think there are size requirements everywhere in Europe above which you have to file the accounts and then they are accessible on the trade register's online db, or whatever the equivalent. For free or for some trivial price
>City
I refuse to believe City is paying their players such low wages (comparatively) and doesn't have shell companies pay them under the table. Fricking oil barons.
They have long term players with contract renewals, that really inflates the wage bill. If you want to keep the wages down, you get a new player on 5 year contract and you sell him on the 4th year.
>Sancho - 2026 (-10m) >Varane - OOC (-18m) >Martial - OOC (-13m)
Sancho doing one (probably for near free) and two shitters expiring will free up a Grand Total of £41m per year, or about 10% of the wage bill. Any bets on how quickly that gets blown again? >Casemiro -2026 (350k pw / 18m lol) >Rashford - 2028 (300k pw / 16m lol)
them two are going fricking nowhere
>Sancho doing one (probably for near free)
erm, no. dortmund will end up buying him at around 30m at this rate.
Nobody will buy rashford but casemiro is almost nailed on to go to saudi.

Whos gonna tell him?
>Man. United: 381m
This club is ran by the biggest morons in the world.
Manure "stars" get paid the same (or even more) as the stars in Real Madrid and City but their performances wouldn't make them starters in Brighton.
Imagine building a team around geriatrics who were top players half a decade ago and promising "talents" that never become stars that will carry the team to titles. And to make the situation even worse - their average starters and benchwarmers are also overpaid morons in both transfer terms and salaries.
Manure is definitely not recovering for another decade and its glorious kek
Even if they make drastic and competent changes today it still would take 3-4 seasons for the effects to show. But they won't do that
>This club is ran by the biggest morons in the world
The club is owned and run by geniuses. They understand that no matter the results the customers will always pay for the new shirts and toilet paper merch. By ensuring that the team have just enough quality names to remain in contention for CL qualification every other year, they don't have to worry about paying players bonuses or seriously investing to compete with the top spenders
Unironically yes but it isn’t entirely on him. He was asking for multiple kings ransoms in wages each week. The club stupidly agreed to this. Then other, more mediocre members of the squad seen how much he was being paid and demanded similar. The club again agreed to all this.
They never should have given him that contract in the first place.
Giving Messi precisely what he wanted fricked them but then they became too complacent and assumed he’d stay regardless. All of the flaws in previous squads they relied on Messi to cover with goals scored.
They went and sold their future to raise up cash and like some degenerate gambler immediately blew it all banking on winning trophies and deep CL runs to make up for it
I used to respect them more than any other club but can you think of a more pathetic club in europe right now?
Chelsea but they are not too far
Yes I can. My 3rd division team that used to win everything in the beginning of the season and now tanks because players aren't getting paid.
Clubs behind Barca according to the UEFA report
PSG: 617m
City: 554m
R. Madrid: 453m
Liverpool: 429m
Bayern Munich: 416m
Chelsea: 396m
Man. United: 381m
Spurs: 289m
Juve: 283m
Arsenal: 270m
At. Madrid: 245m
Dormunt: 236m
Inter: 230m
Who are they paying all this fricking money to? That wage bill for their current squad can't be possible.

Inter has a lot of tax differences, like all Italian clubs. The numbers from OP are from UEFA themselves, i.e. the actual wage bill.
That roughly adds up to 200m, not 639m
Doesnt include deferred wages from Barca players
>deferred wages
What's that?
e.g. pissi still gets money from the time he played for them (on account of his salary back then)
>a shitter like De Jong is the top earner
lmao
Ter Stegen is just a nice bloke, man. Too bad he had to shadow Neuer for most of his career.
I always forget that Frankie is playing for Barca. The man is stealing a living.
Didn't De Jong get a huge cut? I don't think this graph is correct
He never took an actual cut. Only deferred part of his wages to a later date.
last two digits are how many million per year is Joao Felingz gonna get when they sign him at the end of the loan
Believe it or not, but they are still paying Pissi the 1,5 billion € they promised him.
>Barca Costa as much as Bayern and Dortmund together
>Isn't in the semis, Bayern and Dortmund are
Hehehe
wages are reported differently all the time, what the frick
Transfer periods changes a lot of things every Summer/winter.
unlike US sports, football salaries don’t have to be publically declared, it’s all second hand info and guesswork

If only the footyleaks guy was still around

looks about right, their financial statements show 517m and if they do really shady stuff it can go up to 676m
believe what you want arseanal customer
>Liverpool: 429m
wtf.....28 players in the squad. That means averaging 15M a year each for an average of 280k/week. Absurd.
Not absurd at all. Especially with the latest renewals of players like Salah, or Nunez getting a decent contract from the get-go.
They have long term players with contract renewals, that really inflates the wage bill. If you want to keep the wages down, you get a new player on 5 year contract and you sell him on the 4th year.
>Man. United: 381m
this will get lower next season with the departure of Casemiro, Sancho, Varane, Martial and Rashford.
>Sancho - 2026 (-10m)
>Varane - OOC (-18m)
>Martial - OOC (-13m)
Sancho doing one (probably for near free) and two shitters expiring will free up a Grand Total of £41m per year, or about 10% of the wage bill. Any bets on how quickly that gets blown again?

God I want Borussia to win so bad
>Spurs: 289m
All to win frick all lmao
Same with Arsenal
At least Arsenal gets somewhat close, just to bottle but fricking spurs have done frick all.
Just pull some more palancas until it's fixed.
I hope Brokelona ends up like Schalke
How does this shit even happen? Barcelona seemed like a decently ran club until Neymar left, what happened?
City stole all their competent staff.
This. City have even successfully replicated La Masia
>seemed
Exactly
it's Messi fault somehow
Tbf his last wage contract is what set Barca on this self-destructive path. A chain reaction Barca never could afford.
Unironically yes but it isn’t entirely on him. He was asking for multiple kings ransoms in wages each week. The club stupidly agreed to this. Then other, more mediocre members of the squad seen how much he was being paid and demanded similar. The club again agreed to all this.
it is
It is, you boludo. Cancerlona is STILL paying Messi his absurd contract.
Barcelona is perma fricked, losing Messi over some legal bullshit was so amateur from them. Every board director should have been fired
They never should have given him that contract in the first place.
Giving Messi precisely what he wanted fricked them but then they became too complacent and assumed he’d stay regardless. All of the flaws in previous squads they relied on Messi to cover with goals scored.
BOSS
They went and sold their future to raise up cash and like some degenerate gambler immediately blew it all banking on winning trophies and deep CL runs to make up for it
