Kaká remains the highest-paid player in MLS according to salary figures released by the MLS Players Union on Friday.

The Orlando City star's 2015 guaranteed compensation figure of $7,167,500 edges that of Toronto FC's Sebastian Giovinco ($7,115,555.67). Guaranteed compensation takes into account base salary and signing and guaranteed bonuses annualized over the term of the player's contract (including option years). Marketing bonuses, performance bonuses and other individual agreements between players and clubs are separate and not listed. For summer arrivals, their deals are pro-rated. 

High-profile arrivals Frank Lampard, Andrea Pirlo, Steven Gerrard and Giovani Dos Santos have their MLS salaries public after Friday's release. SI.com's Brian Straus reported in May that Lampard was on a $6 million per year deal through 2016, and the Players Union's documents verify that information. His incoming teammate, Pirlo, is on a $2.32 million deal.
