Aymeric Laporte is a French-born centre-back who plays for Athletic Bilbao and the Spain national team. He made his name at Athletic, moved to Manchester City in 2018 and won five Premier League titles there, including the domestic treble of 2019 and the continental treble of 2023. After two seasons with Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia he returned to Athletic in September 2025.
The Sunday Times valued his wealth at £14 million in May 2022, about $18.8 million at the October 30, 2026 exchange rate. That put him joint 26th among the 34 footballers on its list of the richest people in the UK aged 30 and under.
How he made his money
Laporte's wealth comes mainly from his contract at Manchester City, which signed him for a then club-record fee in 2018, and from his later deal with Al-Nassr, which came after the Sunday Times figure was published.
He qualified for the British list because he was playing in England when it was compiled. The reports we checked did not break down his fortune.
Career at a glance
Born in Agen, France, Laporte joined Athletic Bilbao at 16, becoming only the second French-born player to play for the club after Bixente Lizarazu, and made 222 appearances for them.
He won 51 youth caps for France and was called up to the senior team twice without playing. After gaining Spanish citizenship in 2021 he switched to Spain, played at Euro 2020, and won the Nations League in 2023 and Euro 2024.
About this estimate
The Sunday Times publishes its Rich List every spring, along with a list of the 100 richest people in the UK aged 30 and under. The May 2022 edition included 34 footballers, and the Daily Star printed all of them with their figures. It valued Laporte's wealth at the amount shown on this page. The paper bases its numbers on identifiable wealth such as earnings after tax, property and company stakes, not on salary alone.
This is the most recent Sunday Times figure for Laporte that we could find. It has not been updated since 2022, so his wealth today is likely different. We show the figure as published, in pounds, with a rough dollar conversion at the October 30, 2026 exchange rate. Transfer fees and wages mentioned on this page are club spending or earnings, not wealth.
