Whose Salaries are the Strangest at Bayern?

Let's look at Bayern's salaries, the fund of which is four times bigger than that of the Bundesliga leader Bayer. A necessary clarification: not all data is 100% accurate, but we aggregated them from various sources, so the truth is somewhere close.

Matthijs de Ligt – 16 million euros

De Ligt, a regular starter for Bayern just a year ago, lost that status in the 2023/24 season – the Dutchman misses many games due to injuries. Thomas Tuchel is unhappy with his slowness and dreams of signing Ronald Araujo. Therefore, the status of the highest-paid defender in the club looks somewhat undeserved.

Alphonso Davies – 11.25 million euros

And here's Alphonso Davies, who played one of the critical roles in the campaign for the Champions League victory in 2019/20, still receiving the 11th highest salary in the team. Moreover, the bosses of Munich are in no hurry to offer improved conditions to the Canadian, which is why he might well move to Real Madrid.

Jamal Musiala – 5 million euros

Negotiations with Thomas Müller are also not easy, and his potential successor, Musiala, receives one of the lowest salaries – even more than Rafael Gerreiro. And yet Musiala has already spent his fourth season in the first team and has made 152 appearances with 39+27.
