5. Lionel Messi (Barcelona) – $462,400
Honestly, if Messi is number 5 on this list, there’s very few players that are actually worth their wages after this (spoiler: number 3 is also worth his price).

4. Oscar (Shanghai SIPG) – $514,000
It was assumed for a pretty long time that Oscar was the best paid player in the world. He was also one of the first to move to the CSL. While his weekly wage of nearly $514,000 isn’t that bad, he doesn’t even get a top 3 spot on this list.
3. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid) – $545,000
And this is only his wage, this isn’t counting his numerous endorsement deals. If we’d add that number, his wage would probably be a lot higher. Because even CR7 can never have enough money, right?
2. Carlos Tevez (Shanghai Shenhua) – $790,000
Seems pretty ridiculous that this guy isn’t the top earner, right? If it makes you feel any better, rumor has it that Tevez isn’t overly happy with his new Chinese overlords and regrets leaving his earlier team to go play in China.
1. Ezequiel Lavezzi (Hebei China Fortune) – $1,025,000
Yes, that’s slightly more than a million bucks every week. Now calculate how long it would take you to earn this at your current job and hate your life.
