5 football stars who are underpaid

#5 Joshua Kimmich

The last name in our list is a surprise package. The 21-year-old German Joshua Kimmich. According to Pep Guardiola, Kimmich is one of those exceptional young talents whom the world would praise till the end of their career. Kimmich, who’s a defensive midfielder has played as a right-back, left-back, defensive midfield and in the central midfield for the Bavarians.

Even Joachim Löw was so impressed with the young talent that he preferred him in the starting XI of Die Mannschaft over more experienced Shkodran Mustafi.

The surprises surrounding this child prodigy don’t end here. His wages bill is the reason why he made our list. Kimmich earns £842.54 a week (Source: Total Sportek). Though it sounds unbelievable but it indeed is the fact.

Germans have always been loyal to their country but not often to their clubs. Kimmich can easily make the list of priority target for any German Superpower club and if he decides to move away from his country then his earning would surely touch the sky.

It’s time the Bavarian Giants should consider the unforeseen possibilities and refurbish Kimmich’s pay structure.
