PSG star had his payslip leaked as fans blown away by elite level footballer's salary and tax bill

A Paris Saint-Germain star once appeared to have his payslip, tax bill and even his home address leaked over the internet.

Keylor Navas, currently of Newell’s Old Boys, was once considered among the best shot-stoppers in Europe.

The Costa Rican joined Real Madrid in 2014 and went on to win 12 trophies, including one La Liga crown and three consecutive Champions League titles with the Spanish giants.

He subsequently signed for French giants PSG in 2019, where he went on to win three Ligue 1 titles, three French cups and reach another Champions League final, which the Parisians lost to Bayern Munich.

And months into his time in Paris, Navas appeared to have his PSG payslip leaked across X.

The alleged payslip claimed Navas had earned 614.000 euros (£525,000) in September 2019, meaning he would be earning more than seven million euros a year.

The reported pay slip also featured Navas’ tax deductions, which amounted to a little over 98,000 euros (£83,000) for that month.

When asked about the veracity of the tax bill in a press conference at the time, Navas laughed and said: "Don't be surprised if in the future you see me buying a villa in Miami, a building in China or a house in Paris.

"I imagine there are many who are bored and do this kind of thing. It's sad, but that's how it is.

“It doesn't bother me. So much the better if it makes some people laugh. What interests me is football.

“Unfortunately, things like that happen. But I insist, don't be surprised if one day you see that I have a private jet in my name."

Navas spent time at Nottingham Forest on loan, after he fell down the PSG pecking order when the French club signed Italian keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
