In the winter of 2017, Brazilian midfielder Oscar moved to the Chinese club Shanghai. Even then, it was clear that the transfer was motivated by lucrative financial terms, something the player himself did not hide. But who could have imagined that after eight years in the Middle Kingdom, Oscar would return home with such a paycheck.

Details: According to calculations by Marca, Oscar earned around 175 million euros in salary alone during his time in China—approximately 22 million euros per year. Notably, the Brazilian even managed to bypass the salary cap that was introduced in the local league in 2019.

Reminder: During his time with Shanghai, Oscar won three league titles (2018, 2023, and 2024), one cup (2020), and one supercup (2019). He also holds the honor of being the most assist-producing player in the history of the Super League, with 113 assists. Recently, the Brazilian bid farewell to the local fans.
