Salary/Winnings: $33.1m Endorsements: $6m Given his status as one of the highest paid footballers in the world, it's no surprise to see Zlatan Ibrahimovic on this list. The PSG striker, although now 34 years old, still find the back of the net with regularity, and currently sits on 15 league goals from 13 appearances. It's obvious that defences across France and Europe still find it hard to contain the 6'5" frontman. In-game performances aside, the year has been a slightly disappointing one for Ibrahimovic in terms of endorsement deals. He ended a long-term sponsorship deal with Nike, which will always be a blow to any athlete's income, but still scooped $6m in other endorsement deals. His value could skyrocket if a rumoured move to the lucrative MLS goes through this year.
