Nico Williams recently surpassed Earling Haaland's record, becoming the professional player with the longest active contract after signing a 10-year deal with Athletic Bilbao. Haaland extended his contract with Man City in mid-January of this year, lasting until 3/2034.

As of 22/7, a total of 43 players in Europe's top two leagues, the Premier League and La Liga, have contracts longer than five years, with Chelsea accounting for 18 of those. These "mega-deals" often carry hidden risks and rarely benefit both the player and the club.
