An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

This is a list of the largest sports contracts. These figures include signing bonuses but exclude options, buyouts, and the endorsement deals. This list does not reflect the highest annual salaries or career earnings, only the top 100 largest contracts and thus is largely limited to athletes in team sports and auto racing. Athletes in individual sports, such as golf, tennis, table tennis, boxing, kickboxing, and MMA, are not employed by a team and usually earn money primarily through event winnings. This list also does not necessarily reflect actual money collected by the athletes, since some contracts are eventually terminated (usually due to an athlete either retiring or invoking an opt-out clause).

  • This is a list of the largest sports contracts. These figures include signing bonuses but exclude options, buyouts, and the endorsement deals. This list does not reflect the highest annual salaries or career earnings, only the top 100 largest contracts and thus is largely limited to athletes in team sports and auto racing. Athletes in individual sports, such as golf, tennis, table tennis, boxing, kickboxing, and MMA, are not employed by a team and usually earn money primarily through event winnings. This list also does not necessarily reflect actual money collected by the athletes, since some contracts are eventually terminated (usually due to an athlete either retiring or invoking an opt-out clause). Entries in this list also require an individual citation of the contract, so a number of the highest salaried athletes (according to Forbes) are not included as their contract details have not been officially confirmed, including the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Roger Federer, and Lewis Hamilton. This also skews the list towards sports with salary caps where salaries are therefore public knowledge and easy to cite. The contract figures referenced below are presented at face value and do not reflect potential pre or post-tax treatments. For example, contracts with European sports teams are typically quoted on a post-tax basis. (en)
  • La liste suivante recense les plus gros contrats passés dans le domaine du sport. Les chiffres mentionnés incluent des éventuelles primes additionnelles lors de la signature, mais excluent des options, les rachats, et les contrats de promotion. Cette liste ne reflète pas les salaires et revenus annuels les plus élevés, mais seulement les plus gros contrats passés et est limitée aux athlètes appartenant à des équipes sportives (clubs ou écuries automobiles par exemple). Du fait que les athlètes de sport individuel tels que le golf, le tennis, la boxe ne représentent pas une équipe, ils ne signent pas de contrats et ne gagnent principalement de revenus que de leur résultats et éventuelles victoires lors d'événement sportifs et rencontres. Les contrats présents dans cette liste sont tous supérieurs à 150 millions de dollars. (fr)
