It wouldn’t have been much of a surprise to see Iniesta’s name on the list when he was still a Barcelona player, the Spaniard twice finished in the Ballon d’Or top three, once in second behind just Messi, and was an integral part to the Catalan giants all conquering sides.
However he left La Liga in 2018 and moved to Japan to join Vissel Kobe and, unlike the Chinese Super League, the J-League doesn’t have a big reputation for paying big wages.
Also surprisingly on the list there is only one Premier League player, in the form of Raheem Sterling, with some reporting that both David de Gea and Kevin de Bruyne earn more than the England forward.
Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez have also been reported to be paid big wages, although the latter is on loan at Inter this season.
The highest paid player of all time is a name that few talk about but should be mentioned when discussing the best players of all time. This article gives you a brief history about this star and what makes him so special.
