13. Jordan Veretout (Olympique Marseille): £483,000-per-month
The central-midfielder is Marseille’s top earner following his move from Roma last summer.
His battling displays have helped put his side in title contention this term
12. Presnel Kimpembe (PSG): £571,000-per-month
The first entry of many on this list from PSG.
Despite being on mega-money, the PSG academy man has only made 11 appearances in Ligue 1 this season.
11. Wissam Ben Yedder (Monaco): £650,000-per-month
Ben Yedder is the highest earning player in Ligue 1 outside of PSG.
The 19-cap France forward is certainly earning his buck, firing in 17 league goals so far this season to put Monaco in the top four.

9. Juan Bernat (PSG): £642,000-per-month
The Spanish left-back joined from Bayern Munich in 2018 and has become a main stay in the side.
Have extended his deal last summer amid interest from rivals clubs, Bernat is a reliable member of the side.
8. Sergio Ramos (PSG): £695,600-per-month
Was something of a surprise when the veteran defender left Real Madrid to join up with the French giants.
His first season was a bit of a disaster, making just 15 league appearances due to injury issues.
Despite becoming a regular this season, he has still been tipped to make an exit, with a reunion with Cristiano Ronaldo among the options.
7. Gianluigi Donnarumma (PSG): £805,000-per-month
Another whose massive move has failed to set the world alight.
The AC Milan youth product failed to cement his role as No1 following his free transfer but has since become more established.
Certainly showed his worth for Italy when he helped his country to Euro 2020 glory.
6. Achraf Hakimi (PSG): £952,000-per-month
The Morocco right-back is widely considered among the best in the world in his position.
Was a major part of the Morocco side that reached the World Cup semi-finals in Qatar – the first African nation to make it that far.
Has become embroiled in serious off-field accusations this year which threaten to derail his career.
=4. Marco Verratti (PSG): £1,054,000-per-month
The Italian midfield destroyer is the first on the list to take home more than a £1million-a-month.
Now 30, he’s been at the club for over a decade and has remained a major player during that time despite the huge influx of Qatari money flowing into the club.
=4. Marquinhos (PSG): £1,054,000-per-month
The Brazilian is widely considered one of the best centre-backs in the world.
Since joining in 2013 has helped the club win seven Ligue 1 titles.
3. Lionel Messi (PSG): £2,967,000-per-month
As arguably the greatest player of all time, the fact Leo Messi isn’t the club’s top earner just goes to show the incredible wealth at their disposal.
Joined from Barcelona in 2021 amid a financial meltdown at the Nou Camp.
After struggling, by Messi’s standards, in his first year – this season has been something else.
With 13 league goals he’s fired PSG to the top of the table.
And there was the small matter of him leading Argentina to World Cup glory in Qatar.
With his deal expiring this summer, there is uncertainty whether he will remain at the club beyond this season.
2. Neymar (PSG): £3,230,000-per-month
Another signing from Barcelona – but in Neymar’s case a much more fractious arrival.
PSG stunned the world by splashing out £200m to sign the Brazilian against the Catalan giants’ wishes.
Ironically, many believed Neymar’s desire to join Barcelona had much to do with escaping Messi’s shadow.
While the face of PSG for much of his time at the club, incredibly he’s never played more than 22 league games in a season since his arrival in 2017.
1. Kylian Mbappe (PSG): £5,275,000-per-month
Signed from Monaco in 2018 for a staggering £180m, Mbappe has been well worth the money.
The World Cup winner has scored 202 goals in 250 appearances for the club.
