Sun: 40-year-old Cassorla returns to La Liga and his annual salary is 160,000 pounds, only one-third of Mbappe s weekly salary

Recently, the newly promoted La Liga Real Oviedo announced that he would renew his contract with 40-year-old veteran Cassorla for one year to 2026. According to The Sun, Cazorla's annual salary rose to 168,000 pounds after the contract renewal.

In 2023, Cazorla left the Qatar League and returned to his youth training team Oviedo. He proposed to play for the team for free, but the league stipulates that players must have salaries. So Cazorla accepted a minimum annual salary of 77,000 pounds (1,480 per week) and transferred all portrait rights to the club, and 10% of the jersey sales were donated to Oviedo youth training.

With Oviedo's advance to La Liga, Cazorla renewed his contract with the team again with a minimum salary, but La Liga stipulates that the minimum annual salary of players is 168,000 pounds (3,230 pounds per week), so Cazorla was also "forced to raise his salary." Real Madrid striker Mbappe's income in one week is almost three times that of Cazorla's annual salary.
