The 2024 season is already over. It is therefore logical that all eyes are already on a 2025 that is gradually taking shape in all aspects. This also applies to the contracts of the World Tour's main stars.

In recent weeks, there have been moves such as the renewal of Tadej Pogacar with UAE Team Emirates, or the continuity of Remco Evenepoel at Soudal - Quick-Step, despite the fact that the Red Bull - BORA - hansgrohe had offered him what would have been a record breaking contract.

For this reason, our Spanish sister channel Ciclismoaldia have decided to make a review among the most prominent names in the World Tour, such as Jonas Vingegaard, Mathieu van der Poel, Chris Froome, Wout van Aert, Jasper Philipsen..., in addition to those already mentioned, to make a list with the 3 UCI World Tour highest reported contracts for 2025.

The list is interesting. There is one name that very few can expect to have slipped into the Top 3. Moreover, if Evenepoel had accepted Red Bull - BORA's offer and left for the German team, he would top the 2025 list right now with a salary of €10 million! On the contrary, the Belgian will earn half that in 2025: 5 million. Will it be enough for him to make the list? See for yourself down below!

1. Tadej Pogacar

  • Reported salary for 2025: 8 million euros.

The world's greatest cycling star could not occupy any other position. Based on the data offered by UAE after announcing Pogacar's renewal, the Slovenian will earn in 2025 a total of 8 million euros, approximately. A figure at the height of a cyclist who has just completed the best individual year of all time, winning: Giro d'Italia, Tour de France, World Championship, 2 monuments (Liège-Bastogne-Liège and Il Lombardia), Strade Bianche, GP de Montréal and more!

2. Chris Froome

  • Reported salary for 2025: 5.5 million euros.

Chris Froome's position may cause a huge surprise. Despite being one of the greatest legends of the peloton, the Brit has been in a sharp decline for several seasons now. Israel - Premier Tech may well still be weighed down by their decision to offer Froome that kind of money, despite being who he is. The fact that he will be the 2nd highest paid cyclist in the peloton in 2025, which may also be the last year of his career, is a very surprising fact.

3. Primoz Roglic

  • Reported salary for 2025: 5.5 million euros.

The last place in the ranking is occupied by the current winner of the Vuelta a España. The Slovenian came to Red Bull - BORA - hansgrohe at the beginning of 2024 to become the big star of the German team and look to win the Tour de France. Although a crash sidelined him, he responded outstandingly in La Vuelta. By 2025, he will arrive with his confidence sky-high to try to pull off the feat of beating Pogacar and Vingegaard in the Grande Boucle - what better motivation than 5.5 million euros to do so!
