Who could be in the number one position? None other than the GOAT itself, Lionel Messi. Since joining the MLS, the Messi effect has brought a new wave of fans to the US soccer league. More popularity means more money for the league. That's why Inter Miami assured that Messi got a decent contract when he came to the league.

Logically, the MLS can't compare to the massive salaries the Saudi Arabian League or Europe could offer. However, they found a way to convince the two-time Copa America champion to join the Herons.

Since arriving on the team last year, Messi helped Inter Miami win their first trophy in the club's professional era. Also, he played 29 games, scoring 25 goals and delivering 16 assists.

Salary per year: $20.4 million
