    merci financefutbole. MORE KAKA, Benzema, RONALDO merits votre salaire ok

  2. Hello,
    Article and curious and interesting because it shows that huge amounts paid to players even in times of crisis.
    The crisis did not "invade" the football players, eh eh eh.

  3. Marlyn says:

    creo es that supremely exaggerated them paid ellos pues hay muchisssima people who are in hambre muere.

  4. Rita says:

    He liked to know when they do a similar study for the 50 highest salaries of female soccer players.

  5. Fabio says:

    It is impressive and while frustrating to see that a person only earn so much money "only" to play football.
    The career is short yes but I think the Europeans have set a way no end and no ceiling when it comes to investment.
    One can see that the English teams are billions of euros on account of transactions sureais and nonsensical.
    Sportsman would have to win well but by that possesses short career but not so much. I was appalled to see the wages of CR.
    More than 1 million euros a month?
    Where is this world coming to?
    Garrincha, Platini, Zico, Eusebio, Pele, Rivelino, Beckenbauer etc.eram more players and even in dreams thought conquer such astronomical salaries.
    Here in Brazil, Ronaldo, playing for Corinthians is earning 300,000 euros a month and already I find absurd.

  6. carlos says:

    Real Madrid and Manchester City as a slutty kkkkk

  7. Miguel Adriano says:

    The poor guys until they earn little ...

  8. Josiel d. says:

    soared to a season down here these salaries

    by May 2009 had only three players receiving more than 7.5 million, now has eight!

  9. Astridinho says:

  10. dygomagno says:

  11. Appollinaire says:

    Très beau classement je crois tous ses joueurs occupent rang le Mérite Thurs les en fonction de leurs œuvres dans leurs tristes clubs

  12. Fritz says:

    1 months of 50 players ended the hunger in the world!

  13. Sebastian says:

    w / so much money to distribute w / football was only one person w / less expensive

  14. Plump dos Santos says:

    Such overpayment.

  15. michael rodrigues says:

    Much money to kick a soccer ball

  16. ildomar says:

    As a soccer player deserves the best in the world. And he needs to do on the field.

  17. junior says:

    Good! everyone wonders why the soccer players earn so much, but no one has any idea what they spend to get where they arrived, ouvoce think that came to his father is rich that can afford a high school football level for them prepare their children with differentiation?
    The answer is no. a football player goes through great sacrifices to get where they arrive, they skip that party unmissable, can not sleep at home with his girlfriend a day before the game by

  18. Joao says:

    I wonder how much Ronaldo wins (Phenomenon) of Brazil.

  19. Yet there comes a day when this will end snap, and soccer player will win by production.

    Played well and the team was champion? wins big ...
    He played well but the team did not win? makes money ...
    Did not play so well but the team was champion? earn a buck ...
    No team played well and went wrong? gets no p ...

    That would be the right model.

  20. Hidetp Roberto says:

    Fenomeno Ronaldo wins in Timon somewhere around 1.1 million reais, which gives about 488 000 euros per month, which places it among the 50 highest-paid players in the world, and the highest-paid playing in Brazil (Robinho, who I know, receives part of Manchester City and part of the Saints).

  21. Peter says:

    But it seems that the new contract now Ronaldo is 717 000 euros monthly. But of course the Corinthians, a club with no intelligence that fills with sponsors to pay that for a fat that comes from playing in a while and walking if injured. This is pure marketing. And this may Ronaldo putting a stain on his great career.

  22. Matoso king says:

    Cristiano Ronaldo suprendeo me quite

  23. bat says:

    Absurso that this world is so unfair it. But the guilt of these people are fanatical about football. until people change their minds, that inequality will remain, people like things futile.
    What rubbish.

  24. Helka says:

    it's all because of one parent families who often do not have what their children eat at home have the money to go to a football field, and his hard earned money going to pay the fortune of those guys who has neither ashamed to say Brazilians and know that your country of origin large families living with only U.S. $ 510.00 ...

  25. wagner costa says:

    Great article, but as we are Brazilians, you can not put a column converting euros into dollars?
    We thank you.

  26. Prestes Jorge says:

    Enjoy this stage as it comes around, a new system that will mess of everything, including football, will be the maximum salary of 50,000 pounds for the first division, and regardless of whether famous or not, and this salary will be for all jogsdores, coaches and reserves, good, if any player or club presidents do not accept, will be out of football, I think it is more social life than football, because sports consdero such as the circus of Rome, while it is soccer, samba and rum, that matters of life like, fuck it, turn around.
    Unfortunately this vision and the current system, while discussing football, police, and carnival, everyone is blind to the welfare of the population, ma thank GOD that this change comes very soon.

    I believe that no one will understand, but that is your warning, wait ... ... ....

    Graciously

    Jorge Prestes

  27. claudio say
