The most famous sportsmen in Europe may get tens of thousands of pounds every post on Instagram.
Japan-101 has released a new report that estimates how much money the top Champions League players may make via social media.
However, just three players from the Premier League have been selected.

The five-time Champions League winner became one of Europe’s top midfielders last summer when he signed with Manchester United.
Casemiro still has a massive legion of devoted fans, many of whom have adored him since his days at Real Madrid, even though he has had a slow start to the season.
A single sponsored post could earn the Brazilian £10,617, thanks to his 22.2 million Instagram followers.
Kevin De Bruyne (#9)
The world’s most renowned player, Kevin de Bruyne, won the Champions League for the first time last season.
He was a key figure in Manchester City’s historic treble-winning season and was named to the PFA All-Star Team.
With 24.3 million Instagram followers, the midfielder has the potential to earn an extra £12,818 from a sponsored post.
No. 8: Luka Modric
With an impressive resume that includes five Champions League wins, three LaLiga titles, a Ballon d’Or, a FIFA Best Player award, and 33.3 million Instagram followers, Luka Modric has risen to become one of Europe’s most beloved players.

He has amassed 35.5 million followers over the years, which translates to £20,326 every sponsored Instagram post.
6. Erling Haaland
Haaland has 36.3 million Instagram followers, making him a strong contender for most popular player in the Premier League at the moment.
This implies that the 23-year-old treble winner may walk away with £11,333.
Alessandro Griezmann
Ever since he joined Atletico Madrid nine years ago, the Frenchman has been a part of Europe’s elite.

Because of this, he gained a massive Instagram following, which could earn him more than £50,000 for each sponsored post.
