Who is the most overpaid footballer in the world?

#9 Christian Benteke (£120,000-per-week)

Crystal Palace v West Ham United - Premier League
Christian Benteke has scored 19 goals in 60 games for Crystal Palace

Christian Benteke joined Crystal Palace from Liverpool last season in a club record £32 million deal. He currently pockets £120,000 weekly at the club. However, his returns as the Eagles' most expensive signing is far from what you would expect of him.

Christian Benteke has notched only 19 goals in 60 appearances for the club. Two of those has come this season in 20 games! Coming to his wages, he earns £10,000 more than Harry Kane, who is regarded as one of the best strikers in the world at the moment. Benteke hasn;t even produced half of what the Englishman has on the pitch.

The Belgian certainly has a lot of work to do if he wants to become worthy of the money he earns at the club.
