The capology website has revealed the list of the highest salaries for players in the Saudi league, with the expected lead of Al-Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo.
According to the list, Ronaldo earns 200 million euros annually, twice as much as the second-placed player, Al-Ittihad star and captain Karim Benzema.
The former Real Madrid player is tied on annual salary with Al-Hilal star Neymar, which is twice as much as the fourth-placed player, Al-Ahli Jeddah star Riyad Mahrez, who earns 52.2 million euros.
In fifth place is Sadio Mane with 40.5 million euros, which explains the difficulty of Al-Nassr getting rid of him despite all attempts, considering that he will not get this salary at any other club.
