Somewhere around 10 million euros. Let me check on that. I'll look at HJK and Haka, because I know they are the two "heavyweights" of Finnish football.
Is that yearly? That would be amazing. I know the dollar and the euros are close in exchange value. Forgive the ignorance but are you Russian? If so how are Rostselmash doing with particular interest in Gift Kampamba?

I would think that not even all the players in the Finnish league put together makes €10 million ?? I know that the highest wages in eg. Sweden would be in the area of about $253,000 to $300,000 a year, but its only very few players that get that much... In Denmark it's not easy to see how much the players get but the highest wages would be in the area of $600,000 upto perhaps 2 - 3 players getting $1,000,000 a year....
I agree. No way €10 million a year in Finland. The swedish league is financially stronger than the finish, and when brasilian forward alvaro Santos left swedish Helsingborg for FCK he was considered one of Sweden's best paid players with about US$400K a year. Come to think about it, I can't even imagine Litmanen or Hyppiä making €10M where they are now.
No, I don't think they'll get that much. They have problems to get any public to the games, they haven't enough money to pay millions of euros. But FC Lahti will get public, if Litmanen will return. Maybe I'll go, too You see, I live there nearby. Just few hours by car.
Team or player? I need to finish reading the entire question! No, no one player makes 10 million euros. I was talking about team payroll.
