Neither the NBA, nor the NFL, nor Major League Baseball. Not even the Premier League. The championships you will suspect are not the ones that have the highest paid teams in the world of sports. Those who pay them, of course, are Barcelona and Real Madrid, which on average have over 10 million euros for each of their players. So according to "Sporting Intelligence", which analyzed the salaries of 350 teams around the world, this is the situation in the five major leagues in Europe…
LA LIGA
It has been known from previous research that Barcelona is the club that pays the most for its roster worldwide. The average for the first team players is € 11,5 million, always talking about mixed earnings. Of course in this case there are the 58 million gross received by Lionel Messi annually, taking off the Catalans' payroll. Real still reach € 10m, with Atletico jumping on the list and moving from 52nd to 17th worldwide. Spain is Osasuna with only € 423 million grossed per player.
PREMIER LEAGUE
In England those leading the payout race to the players are the two teams in Manchester, with City of course at the top and United coming close enough. The lesser-paid Sheffield United, who is also the only player in the category that does not exceed one million pounds per player, pays less.
SERIE A
In the Championship, the difference between Juventus and everyone else is huge. None of her opponents manages to reach salaries or even half of what Juve pays and this is due to the huge degree owed to the contract of Cristiano Ronaldo. Impressive, but also expected with the situation it is experiencing, is that Milan is in 5th place.
BUNDESLIGA
In Germany there was no question of who would be able to pay the most. Bayern have no rival in this, with Dortmund investing about half, while Leverkusen is third. Gladbach, who is playing for the title this year, has just the seventh payroll.
LIGUE 1
Here is Paris and… all of them. Even the Parisians would pay a little for their stars as much as everyone else together. In Sampiona there are few who can invest in big contracts, with only five being the teams that pay over one million.
