Messi Tops MLS Salaries as Inter Miami Drives League Payroll

Lionel Messi is the MLS’s highest-paid player for 2026 at $28.3 million, with Inter Miami carrying a league-leading payroll of $54.6 million. Messi’s total earnings, including sponsorships and a revenue-sharing deal with Apple, could reach $70–$80 million; Sunghoon?—no, Heung-min Son is next at $11.1 million. The season has seen Miami strong on the field (Messi has 9 goals and 4 assists in 12 matches as they sit third in the East), and MLS renegotiated the Season Pass deal with Apple to end earlier than planned. The wage figures highlight Messi’s outsized impact, though MLS contends there are limits to how one player can transform the league’s image.

New WNBA CBA Elevates Rookie Pay and Sets Supermax Path

The WNBA and the players’ union reached an in-principle agreement on a new CBA that will raise pay for all players under contract—including rookies (minimums rising from about $66k to over $300k). It also creates a path to a $1.4M supermax, with a league cap starting at $7M and an expected ~20% revenue share for players. Core-designation rules would tighten by 2027, and players with extensions of three or more years on rookie deals would not be eligible to be “core” thereafter. A term sheet will be signed, followed by a players’ vote and board ratification; the 30th season is set to begin May 8 (training camp April 19), with free agency and expansion processes for Portland Fire and Toronto Tempo to follow.

WNBA players reach in-principle CBA, signaling a pay surge

The WNBA and its players’ union have reached an in-principle agreement on a transformational new collective bargaining agreement, with a formal term sheet to be finalized soon and votes by players and the Board of Governors pending. The deal would dramatically raise pay—salaries fourfold, average compensation over $500,000, and a path to seven-figure salaries for some players—by tying salaries to league revenue. Key outstanding issues include revenue sharing, housing, and franchise-tag rules. Training camps begin April 19, with opening day May 8, and an expansion draft for Toronto and Portland on the horizon.
