It is a fact that footballers receive stratospheric salaries from their clubs, but one must also consider what enter through sponsorships and the number of millions generated by a media gamer. Furthermore, the boot sponsorship market is similar to the player transfer market, as brands compete with each other to reach an agreement with the footballer and include him in their ranks.
In fact, the millions they receive from boot sponsorship reach a very high value in the case of the best players and footballers with the most media coverage. See the case of Jack Grealishwho although not among the 10 best players in the world, signed on most lucrative contract for a british playerwhere he receives 11.3 million euros per year.
The recent announcement of Nikeconfirming the signing of Erling Haaland by the North American brand, he was included in the top 5 soccer players who earn the most from the sponsorship of their boots.
The 5 players who receive the most money for their boots sponsorship each season:
1

The Norwegian striker is the latest to join this list after rejoining Nike, signing one of the most lucrative contracts in the history of the sport.
