#8 Ousmane Dembele | Forward | £210,000-per-week
The enigmatic Ousmane Dembele is amongst the top earners at Barcelona, having signed a deal worth £210,000-per-week upon joining the club in the summer 2017. The Frenchman has only shown flashes of his outrageous potential since his big-money move and has been ravaged by a series of long term injuries.
Trending
Dembele has not justified his price tag and is running out of time to save his Barcelona career.
#7 Gerard Pique | Defender | £220,000-per-week
Barcelona vice-captain Gerard Pique reportedly takes home just £220,000-per-week - a figure that doesn't even put him amongst the top five earners at the club. The Spaniard is the heart and soul of the Catalan giants and played a pivotal role in all their success in the past decade.
Pique has entered the twilight years of his career but is still going strong for Barcelona, having retired from the Spanish national team after the 2018 World Cup. The former Manchester United man has a contract till 2022 and could well extend a deal if he carries on performing like this.
#6 Ivan Rakitic | Midfielder | £230,000-per-week
Ivan Rakitic could be described as the most polarising Barcelona player in the current squad, as he continues to divide opinion with his performances. The Croatian midfielder is handsomely paid at the Catalan club and is on a contract worth £230,000-per-week.
Rakitic has been a key player since moving to Barcelona in 2014 and could leave the club this summer, with his contract set to expire in 2021.
#5 Sergio Busquets | Midfielder | £260,000-per-week
Midfield stalwart Sergio Busquets is fifth on the list of top earners at Barcelona, as he takes home around £260,000-per-week. The Spaniard is still an important member of the squad and continues to set the standard at the base of the midfielder for his side, as he looks set to see off the rest of his career at his boyhood clubs.
Busquets' Barcelona deal runs out in the summer of 2023 and at the age of 31, the defensive midfielder is approaching the end of his career.
#4 Antoine Griezmann | Forward | £346,000-per-week
Antoine Griezmann is unsurprisingly high up on the list of Barcelona's top earners. Having signed last summer for a deal believed to be more than €100 million, Griezmann has blown hot and cold at the Catalan club so far and divided opinion amongst the fans.
The Frenchman's whopping £346,000-per-week contract makes him one of the best-paid players in La Liga, but it's safe to say that he has not repaid the club's trust in him so far. In recent weeks, Griezmann has been dropped from the starting XI by Quique Setien, as doubts emerged about his quality.
The former Atletico Madrid man's first year at Barcelona was a tumultuous one and he will look to improve in the coming months to become a key player for his side next season.
#3 Frenkie de Jong | Midfielder | £360,000-per-week
Frenkie de Jong is another summer signing who has divided opinion amongst the fans, but the Dutchman has time on his side to become a key player for Barcelona. De Jong put pen to paper on a mammoth deal with £360,000-per-week, as the Catalan giants agreed to part with a £75 million fee to sign him from Ajax.
Having shown flashes of brilliance, the 23-year-old has struggled for consistency and is currently sidelined with a calf injury. De Jong first season at Barcelona is sure to go down as a huge learning curve and it remains to be seen if he fulfils his potential at the club.
The Dutchman is amongst the top earners of the club and is reportedly paid more than several seasoned veterans, a clear indication that Barcelona do not have a wage structure in place.
#2 Luis Suarez | Forward | £405,000-per-week
Luis Suarez is one of the greatest No. 9's of his generation and is sure to go down as a Barcelona legend for his goalscoring exploits. Since joining in 2014, the Uruguayan has formed a fruitful partnership with Lionel Messi and scored goals at a ridiculous rate, winning several personal and well as team honours.
While he hasn't been at his best in recent seasons, Suarez has continued to bang in the goals for his side and is approaching the end of his Barcelona stint. The former Liverpool's striker £405,000-per-week contract runs out next summer and the club are already on the lookout for a replacement, with Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez mentioned as their top target.
#1 Lionel Messi | Forward | £1,224,000-per-week
Unsurprisingly, Lionel Messi is the highest-paid player at Barcelona and earns more than a million per week. The Argentine maestro is widely regarded as the greatest footballer of all time and has broken plenty of long-standing records in his glittering career so far. With six Ballon d'Or awards and numerous other accolades to his name, Messi also leads the all-time La Liga charts for goals as well as assists.
The 33-year-old is Barcelona's talisman and is on a contract worth a staggering £1,224,000-per-week. Messi's contract expires next summer and while his indication to see out the rest of his career at Barcelona is no secret, rumours have emerged in recent weeks that he is considering his future.
Barcelona have been marred with problems on and off the pitch this season and their misery could be compounded if the diminutive Argentine walks for free at the end of his contract.
