“I think you’ve got to admire that because he could’ve taken a big contract in Japan, but he wants to test himself, and he wants to play European rugby, so I say good on him,” said Avan Lee.
Although he did not disclose his actual salary and benefits at Leinster, Surprise Sports revealed that his salary is between NZ$75,000 and NZ$195,000.
Noting that he had been paid a substantial amount of money and benefits throughout his decorated career, Barrett’s net worth is estimated to be around NZ$4 million.
