It all depends on what league you play in and how good of a soccer player you are. Most players in the MLS receive a salary of $50 thousand a year.

This depends primarily on sponsors. There are winning purses in certain tournaments, but sponsors generally dictate pay based on a player's involvement in tournaments and product demonstrations.
In 2004, soccer players on US teams started at a mere $24,000 a year and topped out at $280,000 dollars a year, which was the salary cap.
That will depend on how good you are, the very best get 150.000 pounds a week, or the beginners get 10, 000 pounds. Sponsorships also vary from player to player.
