Sergio Busquets salary: How much does Inter Miami star earn per week and annually in MLS?

Under his current contract at Inter Miami, Busquets earns $168,749 (£129,938) on a weekly basis.

Meanwhile, his annual salary scales up to $8.7 million (£6.7m), not only making him one of the top earners at the club, but also the league.

As expected, Lionel Messi comfortably sits atop Inter Miami’s wage bill, with Busquets following at number two.

Meanwhile, former Barcelona stars Luis Suárez and Jordi Alba occupy the third and fourth spots, both earning similar wages.

Finally, rounding off the list at number five is USA international Julian Gressel.

It shouldn't come as a surprise that, apart from Inter Miami, Messi is also the highest-paid player across the league.

In second position is former Napoli star Lorenzo Insigne, followed by Busquets at number three this time

Meanwhile, Federico Bernardeschi and Emil Forsberg round off the list in fourth and fifth positions, respectively.

Although MLS players earn substantial wages, their salaries appear modest compared to the world's top earners, with none making the top five list.

At the top is the ageless Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Saudi Pro League side Al Nassr. In second place is Al Ittihad's Karim Benzema, while Riyad Mahrez of Al Ahli secures the third spot.

Meanwhile, Senegalese internationals Sadio Mane and Kalidou Koulibaly round off the list at third and fourth position, repectively.
