Portland Timbers have had some decent success in the last few years, which is impressive considering that their budget is not even close to the richest clubs in the MLS.
While MLS payrolls can’t be compared to the top leagues in Europe, they still pay pretty well considering the quality of the teams.
The average player salary in Portland Timbers is $421,250, and the yearly wage bill for all the players combined is $11,788,000. Which makes them the 9th highest paying club in the MLS.
