Like every year, and in an unusual exercise of transparency in the world of football, the MLSPA (MLS Soccer Players Association) made public the salaries of all the players that make up Major League Soccer. 10 Spaniards participate in the competition and one of them, Alexander Pozuelo, appears among the best paid for the fourth consecutive season. The Andalusian, who arrived at Toronto FC in 2019 from Belgian Genk, earns $4,693,000 annually. He is the fourth MLS footballer who earns the most then Xherdan Shaqiri ($8,153,999), who joined the Chicago Fire in February from Olympique de Lyon; Chicharito Hernández, who receives $6,000,000 a year for playing for the LA Galaxy, and Gonzalo Higuaín, who will collect $5,793,750 for wearing the Inter Miami jersey this year.

The second Spanish footballer who earns the most continues to be Carlos Gilwhose salary for captaining the New England Revolution has risen to $3,545,833 ($776,166 more than last season), making him the 10th highest paid in the championship. They are followed by Ilie Sánchez, who has increased his salary by signing for Los Angeles FC and will receive $1,150,000 this season, and Andreu Fontàs, who continues to earn $1,125,000 for commanding Sporting KC’s defense. Jesus Jimenezwho arrived at Toronto FC this season after scoring almost half a hundred goals with the Polish Górnik Zabrze, closes the top 5 of Spaniards who earn the most in Major League Soccer with a salary of $934,927 per year.

Less, $723,000, will receive José Antonio Martínez from FC Dallas, while Sergio Ruiz, who is also making his debut in the competition, will receive $613,000 from Charlotte FC. Oriol Rosell, who won the MLS Cup in 2013 with his current club Sporting KC, will raise $475,000 this year. The classification is closed by another champion such as Víctor Vázquez, who will receive $440,000 for playing this season in the LA Galaxy, and the young Catalan striker Miguel Berrywho plays for Columbus Crew and has a salary of $120,000 per season.
