Top earners in Serie A
While Milan players enjoy lucrative salaries at the San Siro, led by Rafael Leao, they still lag behind the league's top earners. Not a single Milan player makes it to the highest-paid list, whereas rivals Juventus and Inter boast players with significantly higher earnings.
Leading the pack is Juventus' Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic, with Argentines Lautaro Martinez and Paulo Dybala securing the second and third spots.
Italian midfielder Nicolo Barella ranks fourth, and Hakan Calhanoglu completes the top five.
