Salary Insights

Key takeaways from the wage structure.

Midfield's Massive Pay Cliff

There is a significant €14.4M salary gap between the club's second-highest paid midfielder, Joshua Kimmich (€20.0M), and the third-highest, Aleksandar Pavlović (€5.6M), highlighting a sharp drop-off after the top two.

Neuer Out-earns Entire Right-Back Position

Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer's €19.9M salary is greater than the combined €19.6M earnings of all three of the club's right-backs: Konrad Laimer, Josip Stanišić, and Sacha Boey.

Salary Symmetry Across The Pitch

Several players earn identical salaries to counterparts in different positions. Defensive midfielder Joshua Kimmich and centre-back Dayot Upamecano both earn €20.0M, left-back Alphonso Davies and left-winger Serge Gnabry are both on €15.0M, and centre-backs Jonathan Tah and Min-jae Kim both earn €12.0M.

The Unlikely Salary Pair: Brown and Saibari

Despite playing in different areas of the pitch, left-back Nathaniel Brown and central midfielder Ismael Saibari earn the exact same salary of €5.2M.

Neuer's Salary Surpasses Five Midfielders

Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer's €19.9M salary is greater than the combined €18.4M earnings of five of the club's seven midfielders: Aleksandar Pavlović, Ismael Saibari, Lennart Karl, Tom Bischof, and Bara Sapoko Ndiaye.

Youth and Experience Share Top Spot

The club's two highest earners represent both ends of the experience spectrum: 23-year-old Jamal Musiala and 33-year-old Harry Kane both earn €25.0M.

Bayern's Elite Trio Earns Nearly 30%

The combined €70M salary of the club's top three earners, Jamal Musiala (€25M), Harry Kane (€25M), and Joshua Kimmich (€20M), accounts for 29% of the total €242.8M wage bill.

Bayern's Four Tiers of Pay

The squad's salaries fall into four clear tiers. The Elite tier (€20M+) includes top stars like Musiala, Kane, Kimmich, and Upamecano. A Star tier (€12M-€19.9M) features key players such as Neuer, Davies, Gnabry, and Tah. The Core player group earns between €5M and €10M, including Konrad Laimer and Aleksandar Pavlović. Finally, a Development tier exists for those earning under €5M, such as Sacha Boey and Tom Bischof.

Upamecano Is The Defensive Kingpin

The highest-paid defender at the club is centre-back Dayot Upamecano, who earns €20.0M per year, placing him well above his defensive colleagues.

Musiala and Kane Lead the Payroll

Attacking midfielder Jamal Musiala and centre-forward Harry Kane are the club's joint-highest earners, both with an annual salary of €25.0M. This makes them the top earners in midfield and attack, respectively.
