Riyadh Season player salaries drop 21% to €1.1B
The total salary bill for players in the Saudi "Saudi Pro League" for the 2026–2027 season has reached approximately 1.1 billion euros, marking a 21.3% decrease compared to the previous season. Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo remains at the top of the earnings chart, accounting for 23.9% of the total fixed salaries, with an annual salary of around 208.4 million euros—more than eight times the salary of English Premier League striker Ivan Toney. The list has seen changes, with major players like Karim Benzema and Riyad Mahrez leaving, and new signings such as Ole Watkins and Gabriel Martinelli joining. Despite the overall decrease in total salaries due to reductions in high-value contracts and shifts in wage distribution, spending continues to focus on the biggest stars.
