BERCELONA'S PLAYERS ARE THE BEST PAID TEAM

Barcelona's superstars might be coming to terms with finishing the season empty-handed, but their beleaguered players can at least comfort themselves with the knowledge that they are the best-paid team on the planet.

 

 

According to new figures collated by the highly-respected industry analysts Sporting Intelligence, Barcelona's first team squad earn an average of £101,160 a week - that's over £10,000 a week more than at any other club, playing any sport, anywhere in the world.
Second on the list is Real Madrid, whose players are far behind on a meagre £90,859 each, while Manchester City (£86,280) and Chelsea (£79,197) occupy third and fourth spots on the list.
