Comparing Vinicius Junior’s current wages with the rest of Arsenal’s squad | OneFootball

Vinicius Junior would become the highest-paid player in Arsenal‘s history if he completed a stunning transfer to the Premier League champions.

Talk of the superstar Brazilian joining Arsenal intensified over the weekend after David Ornstein confirmed the Gunners are exploring a move.

It would be the biggest signing, name-wise, in the Premier League for several years. But Arsenal would need to break the bank to get their man.

On top of the not-unsubstantial transfer fee, Vinicius earns over £400,000 per week at Real Madrid when converted from euros into pounds. That is over £100,000 more than Bukayo Saka, Arsenal’s current highest-earner.

Here’s a full breakdown of every player in Arsenal’s squad and how much they earn in wages compared to Vinicius at Madrid.
