In the current world football world, who is the player with the highest annual salary? If you want to find out who can rank more in the top 15 players in the five major leagues this season, among the forwards, midfielders, defenders and goalkeepers?

There is no doubt that no matter how the tactics of world football have changed, the importance of forwards to a team and the high salary they can earn are far ahead of a team.

So, if the salary scope is expanded to the five major leagues, who has the highest income?

Director released the ranking of the top 15 annual salary income in the 25/26 season - As expected, the forwards accounted for half of the market

Recently, according to Capology, which focuses on sports data and salary analysis, Germany ranked the top 15 players in the top 15 of the top 5 leagues this season. And if divided according to the position of the court, the forward is undoubtedly the biggest winner in this statistical list.

1. Haaland, the contract is 2034, the annual salary this season is 31.7 million euros

2, Mbappe, the contract is 2029, the annual salary this season is 31.3 million euros

3, Kane, the contract is 2027, the annual salary this season is 25 million euros

4, Salah, the contract is 2027, the annual salary this season is 24.1 million euros

5. Alaba, the contract is 22.5 million euros this season, the annual salary is 22.5 million euros, Vlahovic, the contract is 22.2 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 22.2 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 22.2 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 21.1 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 21.1 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 2027, the annual salary is 21.1 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 21.1 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 21.1 million euros, this season, the annual salary is 2027, No Il, the contract is 21 million euros, this season's annual salary is 21 million euros, Lewandowski, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, Be Ringham, the contract is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, Kimmich, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 20.8 million euros, and Sterling is 20.8 million euros, this season's annual salary is 19.6 million euros, and 2 goalkeepers. In the top 15 players, there are 8 forward players, 3 midfielders, 2 defenders and 2 goalkeepers. It is not difficult to see from this that the best way to get a high salary is to play as a striker.

After all, as the top players in the midfield and backcourt at the current current football team, there are only seven players including Bellingham, Van Dijk and Neuer.

And the annual salary of 31.7 million euros that Haaland received is equivalent to RMB 264.72 million at the current exchange rate! What does a number like

represent? With an annual salary of one million, if you want to catch up with Haaland's annual salary, you have to "save for 264 years without eating or drinking"!

The characters are worth it or worthy of their reputation, but in fact, there are also many "fraudsters" on the list. Alaba, who ranked fifth in the five major leagues in the 25/26 season, can undoubtedly be regarded as a "fraudster" that cannot be ignored on the list - an Austrian player with an annual salary of up to 22.5 million euros. Since he joined Real Madrid in a free manner, the balance of signing fees also allowed him to earn a considerable annual salary.

However, considering that Real Madrid will not renew Alaba's contract, it is time for Austrian players to consider finding a job.

In fact, it is difficult to clearly locate Vlahovic's "water or fraud suspicion" - he is only 25 years old at the moment, but in fact, he has the potential. However, since the 4 and a half seasons since joining Juventus, Vlahovic has not even been able to achieve a stable and efficient output of 1 goal in every 2 games.

The player's contract with Juventus will expire next summer. Vlahovic, who is likely to renew his contract with the Zebra, has received a price question from Bayern, according to Romano.

Finally, we must talk about Sterling - according to statistics from the British media DR SPORTS, even if there is no ball to play this season, Sterling's weekly salary is still as high as 325,000 pounds (about 372,800 euros, 3.1133 million yuan).

This situation also made this player, who was only 30 years old, the largest "parallel & fraudster" in the 25/26 salary list!

After completing the three consecutive years of total production goals in the 17/18 season to the 19/20 season, Sterling has actually shown a significant decline since the 20/21 season. Even afterwards, Sterling failed to regain his former peak.

I can only say that fortunately, the contract between Chelsea and Sterling will end until 2027. Otherwise, you can get a salary without working. Even if Chelsea has a strong family, I am afraid that I can't stand Sterling's trouble!
