How Much will Lionel Messi Earn?
Lionel Messi transfer transfer gets fans asking about his earnings. Football is a well-paying profession, not only in England but also in other parts. A player can earn handsomely in such leagues as MLS. The league has gained popularity after it started nearly a decade ago. To the football star, money is not his motive to join Inter Miami. He said if that was the case, then he could have settled for €400m deal with Saudi. Although his contract terms are not known, based on reliable sources, he will earn £43m per season at Inter Miami as a salary. Compared to the Saudi Arabia team that he was to join, this is way too low.
