Luis Enrique In Talks for €20 Million PSG Deal That Would Top Ligue 1 Pay

The ranking spotlights PSG's outsized pay power across a league with a widening wage gap.

Overview

  • L'Équipe's estimated salary list names Ousmane Dembélé the top-paid player at €1.5 million a month, with 14 PSG players appearing before the first non-PSG name, Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, at 15th.
  • Multiple outlets report PSG is negotiating a new contract for coach Luis Enrique worth €20 million gross per year, a developing deal that would make him the highest-paid figure in the league.
  • The reported Enrique offer would exceed Dembélé’s roughly €18 million annual pay, based on his €1.5 million monthly salary.
  • Enrique said he is among the best-paid coaches and questioned whether players care about his wage, responding to the attention on L'Équipe's list.
  • L'Équipe’s analysis points to a two-speed league, citing average monthly pay of about €80,000 at RC Lens and around €50,000 at Nantes and Brest, while a registered agent says some clubs now use lower base salaries with bonuses that may never trigger if a player is sold early.
