10. Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich) £14.8 million
Lewandowski became the second high-profile player to swap Dortmund for Bayern in the space of a year after Mario Goetze also made the switch. His five-year deal, excluding sponsorship, is said to be worth €11 million a year.
9. Sergio Agüero (Manchester City) £15.6m
Aguero signed a new five-year contract worth £150,000-a-week with the Premier League champions back in August last year. The Argentine has insisted he will stay at the Etihad until the end of his new contract.
8. Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Paris St-Germain) £15.8m
The towering Swede, formerly with AC Milan, Barcelona, Juventus, Inter Milan, Ajax and Malmo, has enjoyed a magnificent time in Paris and expects to finish his career at PSG.
7. Wayne Rooney (Manchester United) £16.5m
The England striker recently signed a new five-and-a-half-year contract at Man Utd, extending his current deal by four years in a deal worth up to £300,000-a-week
6. Gareth Bale (Real Madrid) £17.5m
Real Madrid broke the world transfer record to sign the Tottenham forward. The Wales star agreed a £300,000-a-week, six-year deal after sealing an £85.3m (€100m) move which eclipsed the £80m Real paid Man Utd for Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009.
5. Robin van Persie (Manchester United) £18.8m
The 31-year-old remains uncertain about his future at Old Trafford, but the Dutchman certainly will not need worry about his retirement fund
4. Thiago Silva (Paris St-Germain) £20.2m
The former Inter Milan defender joined one of the richest clubs in the world in 2012 and the Brazil centre-back now faetures highly on France Football's list
3. Neymar (Barcelona) £26.8m
After joining Barcelona from Santos for a fee of almost £50m and with a release clause of at least double that, it is little wonder that Neymar features high on the list
2. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid) £39.7m
The Portuguese may have won the European Cup, Copa del Rey, Uefa Super Cup, Fifa Club World Cup and Ballon d'Or award in the past 12 months, but the Real Madrid still falls short of being named France Football's richest player
1. Lionel Messi (Barcelona) £47.8m
The triple European Cup winner and three-time holder of the prestigious Ballon d'Or award may have lost ground to his great rival Cristiano Ronaldo, but the diminuitive Barcelona forward beats him hands down in the earning stakes
