European football - 5 most arguable wages in football right now 

#2 Aaron Ramsey - 400k-a-week

Wales Training Session v Leicester City - Premier League

Aaron Ramsey is earning a prodigious amount of wages at 400k-a-week in Turin from Juventus. Ramsey left Arsenal 2 years ago when he moved on a free transfer, following talks with several clubs across the continent.

However, as is the case with most names on this list, he's hardly proven value for money. The 30-year-old has made just 46 appearances for the Bianconeris since 2019 and only 24 of those have been starts. With only Cristiano Ronaldo earning more than him, it has been an absolute waste of money for Juventus

Ramsey's case has been further complicated by the fact that he is part of a stacked midfield with Rodrigo Bentancur, Adrien Rabiot, Weston McKennie and Arthur. They have all racked up more league minutes than the Welsh international.

Ramsey has often been shunned out on the left flank to be accommodated as a starter. The problem is his wages, which is preventing him from earning a move away from the Allianz Stadium.

Ramsey has long been linked with a return to the Premier League, but his current wage would see him as the highest earner in England. This has made the move to the Premier League quite doubtful.

#1 Eden Hazard - £470k-a-week

Real Madrid v FC Internazionale: Group B - UEFA Champions League

It may be slightly harsh to put Eden Hazard on this list but as the highest earner at one of the world's biggest clubs, he has massively under-impressed at Real Madrid.

Chelsea reluctantly sold him to Real Madrid for an initial £100 million in 2019. The Belgian icon agreed to terms that would see him be paid 470k-a-week equivalent to £25 million a year.

Two years into his 5-year deal and the 30-year-old has spent more time on the sidelines than he has on the pitch. Hazard has missed 59 of the possible 103 games due to a variety of injuries.

He has started in just 30% of the fixtures that Los Blancos has played since his arrival. In fact, having made just 43 total appearances, Hazard has cost his club almost £1.2 million in salary alone each time he has stepped on the pitch.

He further complicated matters following interactions with his former team-mates at the end of Real Madrid's Champions League defeat to Chelsea.

While it would certainly help out Madrid's financial situation if the Belgian moves elsewhere, as of now it doesn't look like he will. Let's hope Carlo Ancelotti can get a lot more out of Eden Hazard this coming campaign.
