Does Kylian Mbappe earn more than Erling Haaland?

Kylian Mbappe earns a gigantic salary at Paris Saint-Germain. It’s difficult to compare his salary to any normal soccer player’s salary. Forbes estimates the young French star to earn $110 million as just his base wage. In 2022, PSG shocked the entire soccer fanbase by awarding the soccer star this gigantic contract. PSG was just attempting to ward off potential interest from any other European soccer club. Mbappe’s salary occupies 19.56% of the entire team’s payroll.
