Here's a detailed look at Barcelona's top 10 earners… 10 Dani Olmo €240,385 per week
On a salary of €9.38m a year is Dani Olmo, whom Barcelona won the race for from RB Leipzig in 2024.
The Catalan giants then had to move on a number of players in order to register Olmo’s €60m transfer, with the attacking midfielder previously coming through at La Masia as a teenager.
9 Ronald Araujo €240,385 per week
Ronald Araujo signed for Barcelona as a teenager back in 2018 and has progressed through the academy and into a first-team regular at the Nou Camp.
The Uruguayan signed his latest and best-ever contract in January 2025, keeping him at the club until 2031.
8 Pedri €240,385 per week
La Masia graduate Pedri, alongside teammate Gavi, are the central midfielders looking to repeat the successes of Andres Iniesta and Xavi Hernandez in years to come.
Pedri signed his most recent Barcelona contract back in 2025, which will keep him at the club until 2030.
7 Marcus Rashford €269,231 per week
Marcus Rashford became the first English player to sign for Barcelona since Gary Lineker in 1986, joining on loan from Manchester United.
Those at the Nou Camp are paying €14m to the forward in wages for the 2025/26 season.
6 Jules Kounde €300,577 per week
Like Olmo, Jules Kounde had to wait for Barcelona to register his transfer after an agreement was reached with Sevilla in 2022.
The France international has been an ever-present figure since joining, making more than 150 appearances.
5 Marc-Andre ter Stegen €320,577 per week
Marc-Andre ter Stegen has now been with Barcelona for more than 10 years and is the current club captain of the Catalan giants.
The German goalkeeper signed his latest contract in 2023, keeping him at the Nou Camp until 2028 where he will turn 36.
4 Lamine Yamal €320,577 per week
Lamine Yamal is viewed as the best Barcelona player to come through La Masia since a certain Lionel Messi, and he made 100 senior appearances for the club before turning 18.
A key player now and for years to come, Yamal signed a six-year deal in 2025 which saw his salary increase by 1000%.
3 Raphinha €320,577 per week
Another winger who has starred for the Catalan giants is Raphinha, who sealed a dream move to Barcelona from Leeds United in 2022.
The Brazilian has gone from strength to strength and placed 5th in the Ballon d’Or. His contract expires in 2028.
2 Frenkie de Jong €365,385 per week
Second on the list is central midfielder Frenkie de Jong, who Barcelona signed from Ajax for an initial €75m in 2019.
The Dutchman has regularly been linked with a move away; however, he’s remained a regular and is under contract until 2026.
1 Robert Lewandowski €400,577 per week
Barcelona’s highest-paid player is striker Robert Lewandowski. The Poland international earns a whopping €20.8m a year with the Catalan giants.
He cost €45m from Bayern Munich back in 2022 and has an extremely healthy goals-per-game ratio in Spain.
