We conducted this research to let you know how much a football player can earn playing in Africa. Of course, the disparities between top flight clubs in Europe, China and other leagues around the world is not in doubt. But we found out that clubs like Al Ahly of Egypt, Mamelodi Sundown of South Africa and Esperance of Tunisia pay better than most clubs in scandernavia and Eastern Europe.

Insufficient information on how much top earners get in various other African leagues not mentioned here.
Well, No! Even junior Àjàyí has been earning more than 50k USD a month with Al ahly, talk less of bigger players there and the recently signed tau who earns in millions. The Egyptian league pays well.
ReplyDeleteThe south African league pays some players higher than 37k, Sundowns and chiefs especially, dolly, Norkovic, Sirino, Billiat etc all earn more than that aside those two clubs no other SA PSL clubs pays Upto 20k USD.
The rest may just be accurate, good job folks.
