Every club’s highest-paid player features Saka, Salah, Sancho… | OneFootball

Eight clubs are paying their top earners more than £200,000 a week, with some providing far better value for money than others.

Bukayo Saka became the sixth new highest-earner in the Premier League when he signed his new deal at Arsenal.

Here’s Saka and the stars receiving the highest salaries at every other club.

Arsenal – Bukayo Saka

Saka’s new contract puts the winger on ‘in excess of £300,000 a week’, making him the fifth-highest paid player in the Premier League.

Aston Villa – Jadon Sancho

Villa agreed to pay £200,000 of Sancho’s £250,000-a-week wages when they borrowed him off Manchester United. Behind the on-loan winger, and providing far better value for money, are Morgan Rogers, Emil Martinez, Boubakar Kamnara and Youri Tielemans, all on £150,000 a week.

Bournemouth – Evanilson

The Brazil forward jumped ahead of Justin Kluivert as the Cherries’ best-paid player when he signed an £85,000-a-week contract in 2024.

Brentford – Igor Thiago, Jordan Henderson, Mikkel Damsgaard

Big investments made by the Bees since last summer with all three signing contracts worth £75,000 a week.

Brighton – Pascal Gross

The Seagulls made the German their highest-paid player on £90,000 a week when they brought him back from Borussia Dortmund in January.

Burnley – Kyle Walker

The Clarets really pushed the boat out to land Walker last summer, giving the veteran £75,000 a week. We hope there’s a relegation clause.

Chelsea – Reece James

The skipper rakes in £250,000 a week, at least £50,000 a week more than his team-mates. But most of the other Blues have contracts until the end of time while James’s terms have only three years remaining.

Crystal Palace – Jorgen Strand Larsen

Palace paid big money and high salaries in January, with Brennan Johnson just behind the £120,000-a-week Norwegian striker.

Everton – Jack Grealish

Grealish was decent value for the £225,000 a week that Everton were putting towards his salary until injury ended his season, sending him back to Manchester City.

Fulham – Bernd Leno

On £130,000 a week, the German keeper remains the Cottagers’ highest-paid star – presumably until they convince Harry Wilson, currently on £55,000 a week, to sign a renewal.

Leeds United – Dominic Calvert-Lewin

The £100,000-a-week England striker, signed for free in the summer, is the only Leeds player raking in six figures every seven days.

Liverpool – Mo Salah

Whether or not he offers value for money after his £400,000-a-week renewal last summer, in the salary stakes, Salah is behind only…

Manchester City – Erling Haaland

The Premier League’s highest-paid player on £525,000 a week until 2024. A silly contract for a ridiculous striker.

Manchester United – Casemiro

United are liable for £350,000 a week only for a few more months until Casemiro’s terms end this summer.

Newcastle United – Bruno Guimaraes

Who would argue that the Brazilian doesn’t deserve to be Newcastle’s highest-paid player on £160,000 a week?

Nottingham Forest – Morgan Gibbs-White

Spurs’ unwanted interest prompted a new £110,000-a-week contract for the England star. No word on a relegation clause, though, with the vultures circling.

Sunderland – Granit Xhaka

Obviously. On £110,000 a week, the signing of the season is joined on six figures by Nordi Mukiele.

Tottenham Hotspur – Conor Gallagher

Our source here puts Xavi Simons and Cristian Romero at the top of Spurs’ salary list but reports elsewhere suggest Gallagher is trousering around £200,000 a week since joining in January.

West Ham United – Jarrod Bowen

The Hammers skipper, rightly their top earner, still has more than four years remaining on the £150,000-a-week deal signed in 2023.

Wolves – Joao Gomes

The Brazilian midfielder is on £105,000 a week until he gets a raise from whichever club signs in the summer.
