| Omar Bravo celebrates scoring a goal with his teammates . |
On May 1st the MLS Players Union released this. The MLS player salaries. Such a great resource for fans to look at and analyze.
Top Earners In MLS:
LA - David Beckham - $5,500,000
NY - Thierry Henry - $5,000,000
NY - Rafa Marquez - $4,600,000
LA - Landon Donovon - $2,300,000
TFC - Julian de Guzman - $1,863,996
Top Earners For SKC:
Davy Arnaud - $250,000
Julio Cesar - $210,000
Jimmy Nielsen - $200,000
Kei Kamara - $200,000
Shavar Thomas - $160,000
Summarized:
If you notice on the actual list, the Players Union lists Omar Bravo as earning only $120,000. But for a player of his caliber and the fact that he is a DP, this is nearly impossible. So I assumed he earns $1,200,000. However, I was wrong, Bravo somehow only makes 120,000 , as revealed by the Full 90 .
You can actually analyze the list and see a lot behind Sporting's salaries.
- SKC wants to keep Teal Bunbury, Michael Harrington, and Roger Espinoza (see guaranteed compensation)
- SKC believes in Kamara, making him the 5th highest earning player in the squad
- SKC does not have much left in the salary cap
- SKC pays Cesar far too much
- Draft picks don't earn much
Does anyone earn too much? Does anyone earn too little? Tell me in the comment section below.
