Ezequiel Lavezzi was another high-profile star who made a switch to the Chinese Super League back in 2016. Signed for £23.5 million by Hebei China, the Argentinian currently earns £20.3 million per year, as per Marca's figures.

There were rumours about his salary being close to about £700,000, but the club later confirmed the figures he would earn in his two-year deal.

In his first season with the club, Lavezzi failed to justify his price tag, appearing just 10 times and scoring no goal. However, in his second season, he has redeemed himself with 20 goals in 27 games.
