It is the biggest contract in the history of sports, the American press announced on Sunday, quoted by EFE.

Soto’s contract is on top of the $700 million, 10-year deal Japan’s Shohei Ohtani signed last year with the Los Angeles Dodgers, which was a new sports record.

Soto played last season for the New York Yankees and will become the star of the New York Mets team.
