Okay, let’s tackle this. So Gaston Brugman is a soccer player with 5 years of experience. The average salary for a professional soccer player in the United States can range from $40,000 to over $1 million per year, depending on the league, team, and level of experience. Since Gaston is in Los Angeles, which is a large market, and he has experience playing for a team like Parma Calcio 1913, I would estimate his hourly rate to be on the lower end of the spectrum. Considering he has only been playing for 5 years, I would estimate his hourly rate to be around $40, which is roughly $2,500 per year, or about $12 per hour.
