While Adrien Rabiot, at the end of his contract at Juventus, must make a new career choice, the French international is the highest paid player in Serie A alongside his Juventus teammate Dusan Vlahovic and Romelu Lukaku.
Far from the completely insane payrolls of Premier League clubs but also PSG (where Kylian Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé, Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi and Gianluigi Donnarumma all exceed a million euros per month), salaries in Serie A are much more reasonable . Due to the economic crisis (and amplified by the Covid), Italian clubs are having difficulty bringing in money and the big names in calcio only rarely allow themselves to do crazy things.
Thus, the Gazzetta dello sport has revealed the biggest salaries in the championship and the transalpine media claims that three players peak at seven million euros per year: Adrien Rabiot and Dusan Vlahovic at Juventus, as well as Romelu Lukaku at Roma. Then come Wojciech Szczesny at €6.5 million net per year and Interists Hakan Calhanoglu, Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram at €6 million. We then find a third French international, Benjamin Pavard, at €5 million.
In fact, Rabiot’s situation is making people talk again. The left-handed midfielder has become a pillar of the Bianconeri, but he is (again) at the end of his contract next June. The Italian press announced that he was close to an extension with the Old Lady, but his mother/agent Véronique Rabiot denied this. There are no real rumors of departure around the former PSG player, but, at 28, he could take the opportunity to realize his dream of playing in the Premier League.
