no it doesn't and i bet those players you mentioned make more from sponsors then they actually get paid from the club.
I haven't found a table of how much Real Madrid players earn through sponsorship, so I can't officially confirm my point but I do know that:
Arbeloa earns 2.8M€ per season after taxes through his salary. Nacho earns 1.2M€.
All Real Madrid players have to give 50% of their individual sponsorship earning to the club.
This means Arbeloa would have to earn over 5.6M€ and Nacho over 2.4M€ from sponsors in order to earn more through them than through their salary. I find this highly unlikely considering players like Hazard earn under 10M€ through sponsorship.
