How to read this: the headline is the Sunday Times Rich List’s own net worth estimate for Paul Pogba (£77 million, published May 2022). We show it exactly as published and have not adjusted it for anything since, so keep in mind it is 4 years old. The figure was published in GBP; the US dollar amount next to it is our simple conversion at the European Central Bank reference rate of October 28, 2026, not a separate estimate.

Paul Pogba is a French midfielder who won the 2018 World Cup with France and scored in the final against Croatia. He came through Manchester United's academy, left for Juventus on a free transfer in 2012 and won four Serie A titles in Turin before United paid £89 million to bring him back in 2016, at the time the most expensive transfer in history.

The Sunday Times put his wealth at £77 million in May 2022, about $102 million at the October 28, 2026 exchange rate. That made him the richest footballer on its list of young British-based sports stars, and 4th overall behind three business heirs and founders.

How he made his money

Pogba's money came mainly from wages at two of Europe's biggest clubs. The Mirror reported that he had earned about £290,000 a week at Manchester United since his 2016 return. Football London noted that his £77 million estimate was £13 million higher than the year before.

He returned to Juventus on a free transfer in the summer of 2022. Wikipedia records that a doping ban in 2023 and 2024 interrupted his career and was reduced to 18 months on appeal, after which he played for Monaco. Those events came after the Sunday Times estimate and are not reflected in it.

About this estimate

The Sunday Times publishes its Rich List every spring, and alongside it a ranking of the wealthiest young people in British sport. The 2022 edition, published in May 2022, valued Pogba's wealth at the figure 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. Of the footballers on that list, he was the highest placed.

This is the most recent Sunday Times figure for Pogba that we could find. The estimate 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 28, 2026 exchange rate. Weekly wages and transfer fees mentioned on this page are earnings or club spending, not wealth.
