We end this series of articles about the relationship between sporting performance and the average annual salaries paid per player with the clubs from Ligue 1.
First, we will look at each season between 2016/2017 and 2019/2020 to analyze which clubs achieved better results between these variables. Then, we will examine the 14 clubs that remained on Ligue 1 during these seasons and how they performed compared with how much they paid on average per player.

In the edition of 2016/2017, AS Monaco won the competition also presenting the 2nd highest annual average salary per player.
From a positive perspective, Nantes achieved the 7th position in the competition with only the 2nd lowest average salary amount per player. In the opposite perspective, Bastia was the case with less success finishing in the last place with the 12th highest average annual salary per player.
