Do Big Stars on Top Clubs Have a "Relegation" Clause in Their Contracts?

I'm just guessing here.
But wouldn't the top players on clubs like Bayern, Chelsea, Arsenal, Barca, etc. have a relegation clause in their contracts in the catastrophic, unlikely event such clubs were relegated?
I could see the Alexis Sanchezes, Luis Suarezes, etc. ... the top stars on the top clubs in the top leagues--have a clause inserted that if their club was ever relegated, they would become an automatic free agent.

Yes. But I would say you hear about it more often for players at not so top clubs.

i think most mid-grade players on mid-grade teams have that clause

i know Newcastle United when they got relegated thought they were too big to do so, so a lot of their top players had to stay there and they went straight back up
most relegation clauses just reduce pay. they don't become free agents

True. Most top players have a "You want to pay me how much? frick that, I'm out" clause.
