The Major League Soccer Players Association released the year’s first set of salary figures over the summer, providing a look at how much money the Union’s new players are earning, writes Jonathan Tannenwald for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

It’s no surprise that Mexican playmaker Marco Fabián tops the charts with a team-record salary of $2.27 million in guaranteed compensation. His base salary is $1.83 million over an 11-month contract, with two club-held option years afterward.

The Union’s two other big signings this year are Striker Sergio Santos, earning $668,500, while midfielder Jamiro Monteiro is earning $569,200.

New left back Kai Wagner earns $360,150, while striker Kacper Przybylko earns $277,000 in his first full season with the team.

Centerback Aurélien Collin, signed as a free agent, earns $175,000.

Many returning Union players got raises as part of existing contracts, including academy-bred defenders Auston Trusty, Mark McKenzie, and Matthew Real.

Centerback Jack Elliott received a big raise when he got a new contract last month. He now earns $265,000, after earning less than $60,000 last year while still on his rookie contract.

The Union’s payroll adds up to $8,154,012.12 in base salary and $8,959,606.00 in guaranteed compensation.
