Since Kylian Mbappe left for Real Madrid last summer, he has inherited the title of the highest-paid player along with the ace position.

Marquiños ranked second in annual salary with 1.12 million euros (about 1.77 billion won), and Luca Hernandez and Achraf Hakimi tied for third with 1.1 million euros (about 1.74 billion won) each. Warren Zaire-Emery (950,000 euros, about 1.5 billion won), Vitinya, Hvicha Kravatskhelia (900,000 euros, about 1.42 billion won), Gianluigi Donnarumma (849,500 euros, about 1.34 billion won), Nunu Mendes (800,000 euros, about 1.26 billion won), Fresnel Kimpembe (640,000 euros, about 1.01 billion won), Bradley Barcola (550,000 euros, about 860 million won), and Desiree Doue (about 790 million won) ranked third to 12th.
