1. Samuel Umtiti – £263,000-per-week

Per The Sun, Raphinha was said to be earning £60,000-per-week at Leeds. He has almost doubled his salary after agreeing to sign for Barcelona.

Despite the huge wage increase, he’s only Barca’s 11th highest-paid player.

Barca have been desperate to get rid of Umtiti to comply with the salary cap rules. The Frenchman earns an astronomical amount, despite playing just once in the 2021/22 season.

Busquets and Alba round out the top three, while Roberto and De Jong make the top five.

De Jong could be on his way out of the door soon, with Man United heavily linked with a move for the Dutchman.

Despite Raphinha’s signing, Barca can’t actually register him, per a report from ESPN.

That is because they are currently over their salary cap of €144m-per-year, given to them by La Liga.

Kessie and Christensen also cannot be registered as they haven’t met the league’s Financial Fair Play criteria.
