Real Madrid are one of the biggest and most successful clubs in the history of football, crowned European champions a record 15 times.

Real previously adopted a 'Galactico' policy under president Florentino Perez, which involved attempting to sign the very best players in European football, no matter the price, and regardless if they'd suit the current coach's playing style or not.

In the late 1990s and early 2000s, this transfer policy saw the likes of Ronaldo, David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane arrive at the Bernabeu, while Cristiano Ronaldo led Perez's second revolution after he returned for a second spell as president.

Real have since won three Champions Leagues in a row under Zidane's management - and more under Carlo Ancelotti. In recent years, they are increasingly scouting players from Brazil like Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo instead of having to pay top dollar for them later.

They did, however, break the club record for Jude Bellingham in the summer of 2023 and added global superstar Kylian Mbappe to their squad for free in 2024.

Kylian Mbappe's arrival from Paris Saint-Germain puts him as Real Madrid's top earner for the 2024/25 season ahead of David Alaba.

Jude Bellingham is the joint-third best-paid player at Real Madrid following his club-record transfer from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2023. Vinicius Jr achieved parity with Bellingham after extending his contract at the end of 2023.

Thibaut Courtois signed a new contract in 2022, which saw him earn a pay rise, putting him among the top earners.

Eder Militao, Antonio Rudiger, Aurelien Tchouameni, Rodrygo and Ferland Mendy are all big earners also.
