Double crown! Each team: Lewandowski s salary is increasing year by year, and the net earning after-tax salary exceeds 16 million euros this season

Football

According to the Spanish media "Daily Sports Daily", Lewandowski's revenue this season has increased year by year, exceeding 16 million euros after tax. Barcelona's third year will be the highest-paid season since Lewandowski joined.

Everyone reported that when Lewandowski signed with Barcelona, ​​his income was said to be lower than during the Bayern era, and this statement was not true. Lewandowski's annual salary at Bayern is 12 million euros after tax, while in Barcelona, ​​the first season was indeed 10 million euros after tax, so there is indeed a salary cut, but this is limited to its virgin season. From the second season, its fixed wages began to grow, with total pre-tax revenue reaching €104 million in four seasons. In addition, Germany's personal income tax (IRPF) rate is slightly lower than the tax rate that Barcelona needs to bear.

Nevertheless, with the league championship, Lewandowski increased his revenue in his first season at Barcelona. The contract he signed states that if the team wins the league championship, the club must pay the players a 600,000 euro bonus before tax. He himself is the key figure in winning the championship and eventually became the league's top scorer of the season.

This season, thanks to the increasing salary terms agreed in the contract, Lewandowski's income has increased significantly. Last season, Lewandowski added 6 million euros to the 20 million euros before tax in the first year. In the just-concluded 24-25 season, revenue increased further by 12 million euros (before tax). Lewandowski netted a fixed salary of 16 million euros (after tax) this season.

In addition to the above amount, the prize money for the double championship of the league and the King's Cup must be added. The league single championship brings a bonus of 600,000 euros (before tax), winning the double championship means that it will earn another 800,000 euros (before tax) based on a fixed salary of 32 million euros (before tax). The individual bonus terms in the contract are only for the league and the Champions League (the Champions League champion bonus is 1 million euros before tax). Therefore, if you only win the Copa del Rey, there is no additional income.

On the contrary, if the triple crown can be achieved, Lewandowski's combination bonus can reach 2 million euros (before tax). The prize for the league plus the Champions League combination is 1.6 million euros, while the prize for the Champions League plus the Cup of Rey combination is 1.2 million euros (before tax).

As of now, Barcelona has paid Lewandowski a fixed salary plus bonus totaling 79.4 million euros (before tax), which helped the team win two league championships, two Spanish Super Cups and a Copa del Rey.

Lewandow's salary is undoubtedly the highest in the team. Other high-paying contracts also exist, such as De Jong, or Lenglet before leaving the team to join Atletico Madrid. However, in their respective cases, partly because they accepted a salary extension agreement to alleviate the club's financial pressure.
