Juan Soto could sign record-breaking 15-year contract worth up to $750 million

newsweek.com

Juan Soto is expected to sign a new contract soon, possibly by Sunday or Monday, concluding a highly competitive free agency. Five teams, including the Dodgers and Yankees, are reportedly offering at least $600 million. Recent rumors suggest Soto may seek a 15-year deal worth around $700 million. However, ESPN's Buster Olney speculates that the final amount could reach $750 million due to intense bidding and potential use of deferred payments. Soto prefers not to have deferred money in his contract, which could affect the final figure. Regardless, his deal is expected to exceed $600 million significantly.
