Justified. Although it was difficult at the beginning, Luis Advíncula managed to adapt to the demands of Boca Juniors and over time became the undisputed starter. The right defender of the Peruvian national team shows his high level every day and was always up to his task despite the coaching rotation.
Beyond his athletic accomplishments, “Bolt” is also one of the highest paid on campus. As revealed by the Salary Sport portal, the national defender receives an annual salary of 904,800 euros per season.
This amount is above some numbers like the extreme Sebastian Villa and the archer Augustine Rossi. The Colombian has a salary of 723,840 euros, while the goalkeeper, who would leave the institution after the arrival of Óscar ‘Chiquito’ Romero, receives 512,720 euros.

However, the total recorded by “Rayo” is not enough to surpass his compatriot Carlos Zambrano. The above portal shows the 33-year-old defender has a profit of 965,120 euros per campaign.
Luis Advíncula amid controversy
Boca Juniors are not in for a good present in Argentina’s Super League. The side, commanded by Hugo Ibarra, have fallen sharply from the first places and in their last presentation, did not get beyond the goalless draw with Rosario Central at La Bombonera.
One of the protagonists of the meeting was the Peruvian Luis Advíncula. The defender contested a ball in his area, but the ball hit him in the hand and the judge decided to award a penalty. Although the start was saved by Rossi, many Xeneizes fans questioned the referee for his decision.
