AFPHighest paid players in the world
Although Bundesliga players, specifically Bayern stars, earn huge sums of money playing in the league, they fail to make it onto the list of the top five highest-paid players in the world. The list is completely dominated by Saudi Pro League players, with arguably one of the greatest forwards to play the game, Cristiano Ronaldo, sitting at the top.
Meanwhile, his former Real Madrid teammate Karim Benzema follows him in second place.
Moving on, Riyad Mahrez comes in at number three, followed by Senegalese internationals Sadio Mane and Kalidou Koulibaly.
