According to a report in Spain, the representatives of Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham have contacted Real Madrid about a new contract for the extensive wage differences between the English and some of his well -paid teammates.
Bellingham signed a six -year contract when he came to Madrid in the summer of 2023 for a first amount in the region of € 103 million (€ 88 million). After an astonishing debut campaign, the graduate of the Birmingham City Academy scored 23 goals in all competitions when he raised the titles of La Liga and the Champions League, and continues to shine this season.
Although Madrid’s raging number five is put into operation in a deeper role for Kylian Mbappe’s summer arrival, it remains a strong force in the penalty area. The 21-year-old is the only member of the glittering squad of the club, who is two-digit gates and templates in all competitions this season.
However, Bellingham’s salary is not entirely representative of its immense value for the squad, so AS.
The Spanish outlet claims that Madrid’s English jewel earns between € 8-10 million (€ 6.7 to 8.3 million GBP) per year after taxes. For comparison, Mbappes only entitles him to around € 8 million per season. It is believed that the Frenchman has an annual basic content of around € 15 million (£ 12.5 million), which is reportedly comparable to Vinicius junior’s average wages.
AS describes the inquiries in a new deal for Bellingham to be “generally known”, although negotiations are far from a conclusion.
Madrid is currently employed by a new deal for Vinicius. The Brazilian’s existing agreement expires two years before the Bellingham contract, and the striker himself showed that the talks have not yet been completed. According to Madrid’s first offer, the 24-year-old reported that his long-term future will be in the Spanish capital.
