Here's a detailed look at Atletico Madrid's top 10 earners… 10 Koke €128,269 per week
Club legend and captain Koke has been on the books with Atletico Madrid since he was a child, with his first professional contract coming back in 2009.
Since then, Koke has recorded an incredible tally of over 690 appearances in red and white and has won nine major honours. His deal expires in 2026 as it stands.
9 Clement Lenglet €140,385 per week
After spending the 2024/25 season on loan at the Metropolitano from Barcelona, Clement Lenglet made his move to Atletico Madrid permanent.
The French defender signed a three-year deal worth €7.3m per season.
8 Alexander Sorloth €140,385 per week
Alexander Sorloth is on the same salary as Lenglet, although the Norwegian forward joined 12 months earlier from Villarreal.
His contract also expires in 2028.
7 Nicolas Gonzalez €144,231 per week
Nicolas Gonzalez is on loan at Atletico Madrid for the 2025/26 season from Italian giants Juventus, although the Spanish side will have the option to make a move permanent at the end of the campaign.
For now, Atletico will pay the winger €7.5m for the season in wages.
6 Alex Baena €160,192 per week
Joining in the summer of 2025 in a deal worth around around €50m from Villarreal was Alex Baena.
Capable of playing on either wing or as an attacking midfielder, Baena signed a five-year deal at the Metropolitano.
5 Marcos Llorente €160,192 per week
Also on €8.33m per season is versatile midfielder Marcos Llorente, who moved to the club from rivals Real Madrid in 2019.
Capable of playing as a right-back, right-midfielder or central midfielder, Llorente appears to be a dream player for Simeone and has turned out over 250 times for Atletico since his arrival.
4 Conor Gallagher €173,077 per week
English midfielder Conor Gallagher swapped Chelsea for Atletico in 2024, with the La Liga side paying around €40m for his services.
Gallagher signed a five-year deal worth €9m per season and looks set to play a key role at the Metropolitano during that time.
3 Antoine Griezmann €180,385 per week
Coming in at third place is Antoine Griezmann, who completed a permanent return to Atletico Madrid from Barcelona in 2022 for €40m.
His time at Camp Nou didn’t exactly go to plan, but he has been back scoring goals on a regular basis for Atletico and became the club’s all-time top goalscorer in 2024.
2 Julian Alvarez €240,385 per week
Atletico splashed the cash in 2024 to sign forward Julian Alvarez from Manchester City, who sold the World Cup winner for a club-record fee.
The Argentina international could end up costing the Spanish giants €95m (£78.9m) if all add-ons are met, with Alvarez picking up €12.5m per season.
1 Jan Oblak €400,577 per week
Comfortably top of the charts and Atletico Madrid’s highest-paid player is goalkeeper Jan Oblak, who earns a whopping €20.83m per season.
The Slovenia international has been one of the best ‘keepers in the world for some time now and has been with Atletico since 2014. His huge contract was signed in 2022 and runs until 2028.
