Can we talk about the team's salary?
I know most of the la masia kids will have a much lower wage but don't you think our lowest paid players who contributed plenty to the team should get a raise?
For example, players like Balde who have been playing for almost 4 years as our starter while not consistent he still is very good and valuable and was regarded as one of the best LBs last season. But his salary is only around 30k weekly (1.7m yearly). I know the recency bias with Cancelo in the fanbase will trash Balde for his performance this season but with this salary and clubs like Manchester United offering him 12m in yearly salary really makes you question your life choices. Compare him to Alvaro Carreras who is being paid close to 10m by Madrid.
Now on to other players which I think we all agree need to take a pay cut or leave, Ters Stegen (15.6m), Araujo (12.5), Andreas Christensen (9m). I think the biggest pay cut should've gone to Lewy with a whooping (400k/week and +20m/ year) while he deserves it and is a legend, he was way too expensive.
I'm getting most of my sources from Capology and confirming with other sources, what do you guys think.
