In a recent report by Le Parisien, details of McBarbie's contract have been revealed, revealing that if the French international fulfills his three-year deal, he will pocket €630 million, making it the most lucrative contract for an athlete in the history of the sport.
McBarbee's contract with PSG runs until 2025, with an annual salary of 72 million euros, which is already quite a big deal, but it turns out that the best is yet to come. PSG will have to pay a total of 180 million euros in signing fees over 3 years, and there is also a tiered loyalty bonus clause, so when McBarbee completes the first year of the contract he will have 70 million euros in bonuses, and after completing the second year he will receive 80 million euros, and then he will receive 90 million more after fulfilling his 3-year contract. A further 90 million euros for a three-year contract! In addition to the huge bonus, there is reportedly an automatic 2-year extension clause that can only be activated by McBarbie.
In fact, the Mets renewed their contract with Barcelona in 2017, and the contract model is very similar to that of McBarbee's. The same is a huge signing bonus plus a loyalty bonus, but at that time, the Mets contract was worth 550 million euros, and McBarbee has broken his record this time around.
