The Denver-based team Colorado Rapids may not have the success they hoped for the last seasons, but with their current budget, they shouldn’t be able to compete with the richer teams in the league.
Player salaries in Colorado Rapids are one of the lowest in the MLS, but if you consider the quality of the overall team and league, it’s not too bad to be fair.
The average player salary in Colorado Rapids is $230,925, and the yearly wage bill for all the players combined is $6,235,000. This makes them the 24th highest-paying club in the MLS.
