David Beckham's salary over the years

Rich man

David Beckham recently moved to French club Paris Saint-Germain after ending his five year stint with MLS team LA Galaxy.

Reports say that the superstar will earn about £170,000-a-week which is equivalent to Rs 1,41,20,302.

He will be giving the entire amount to a French children’s charity.

Some critics say that this is a stunt to avoid tax. Beckham will receive the French minimum wage of €2,200 a month during his brief stint with PSG, with the rest of his salary going to charity and therefore becoming non-taxable.

At LA Galaxy, Becks is said to have earned approximately $32.5 million and another $200 million from endorsements for five years.

At Real Madrid, his salary was around $25 million excluding endorsements.
