It has become a tradition at this time of year: our team colleagues reveal the income of players and coaches
Ligue 1. For this 2025 vintage, several trends emerge.
With the departure of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid and the crisis that affected hexagonal football, the clubs of the French championship reduced the sail. A remark that also concerns Paris Saint-Germain.
Luis Enrique, the PSG coach, can rely on a very high level workforce.
Despite this development, the capital's club remains alone on its planet, with a chasm between the emoluments of its players and those of its competitors. Thus, the top 10 of the best paid footballers in Ligue 1 includes 10 players from the Paris Saint-Germain workforce.
PSG: an incredible case
If Ousmane Dembélé is the best paid footballer in Ligue 1 with an estimated salary at 1,500,000 euros monthly, another case challenges observers: that of Presnel Kimpembe.
While he has only played a few minutes all competitions this season, the Parisian Titi emerges in tenth place in this ranking. The 2018 world champion would receive a monthly salary estimated at 640,000 euros. A colossal amount in view of his effective playing time.
The top 10 of the best paid players in Ligue 1 according to the calculations of the team:
Ousmane Dembélé (PSG) 1,500,000 euros
Marquinhos (PSG) 1,120,000 euros
Lucas Hernandez (PSG) 1,100,000 euros
Achraf Hakimi (PSG) 1,100,000 euros

As a reminder, this is an established classification taking into account the gross monthly salary, without the premiums.
