Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami Salary Explained: Base Pay, Bonuses, and Apple Tv Deal
These bonuses are no joke, folks. Messi will be getting a signing bonus of $10 million, just for putting his John Hancock on the contract. And if that's not enough, he'll also be receiving performance-based bonuses that could add millions more to his already-staggering salary.
But here's the thing: Apple TV is also getting in on the action, with a massive deal that will see Messi become the face of their streaming platform. It's a five-year contract worth a rumored $100 million, which works out to a cool $20 million per year. Not bad for a guy who's already making bank with Inter Miami!
Now, you might be wondering how Inter Miami is affording all this. Well, it's pretty simple, really: they're just printing money! Okay, not really, but they do have some pretty deep pockets thanks to their wealthy owners. And let's be real, having Lionel Messi on your team is a pretty good way to attract sponsors and fans.
