How will the MLS afford to pay 50 million per season for beckham?

Answer 1

They are only paying about5.5 in salaray. hil Anschutz is responsible for that. Everything else comes through endorsement deals and bonuses.

Answer 2

Check out the link below. It says "Beckham may or may not earn $250 million over the next five years, but the majority of his income will continue to derive from endorsements and not from the Galaxy or MLS. "
