Tadej Pogacar is the sensation of this modern era of cycling, a rider already vintage and on his way to legend. Such is his value, that according to information revealed by Gazzetta dello Sport, his contract has a termination clause equivalent to 100 million euros.
These are orbital figures for a sport like this, far from being handled in the economic spheres of other practices such as soccer or basketball. We are talking about numbers that handle recognized figures from those exercises.
Precisely what these clauses intend is to shield the benefit of the contracting party, either to prevent the departure of his ward or leave a notorious monetary reward. It is clear that for the finances that are handled in cycling, the logical scenario is the first. Seeing is believing whoever has all that money in their wallet so that ‘Pogi’ terminates their link -if they wanted to-.
According to the report, when the Slovenian joined the ranks of the UAE in 2019, he earned a neo-professional salary of around 80,000 euros per year. Today, he invoices 6 million per season, being the highest paid cyclist today.
Pogacar is going to go down in the history of cranks and pedals and Emirates must guarantee to have him in his best years in order to expand a bag of triumphs to which they have now added the Tour of Flanders, which is confirmation of the extraordinary cyclist we have before us. eyes.
