The highest paid player of any team in the Premier League
The Premier League spends far more money than other European leagues every transfer window. This of course comes with huge payouts that are incomprehensible to the normal person. Earning over 11 million crowns a week? A fairy tale that the vast majority can only dream of.

Manchester City | Kevin De Bruyne – £400,000
De Bruyne is the highest paid player both at Manchester City and in the entire Premier League. Absolutely deservedly so! On top of that, he’s had a great season which saw him nominated for the UEFA Player of the Year award alongside Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi.
Liverpool | Mohamed Salah – £350,000
Like the Belgian midfielder, Salah definitely deserves his big payday as he has been putting in great performances season after season.
Manchester United | Casemiro & Jadon Sancho – £350,000
At Manchester United, two footballers share the title of the team’s highest paid player. This is certainly no surprise with Casemiro and he is proving his qualities on the pitch.
Sancho is the one who is very young and already well paid. Red Devils fans have no choice but to hope that he finally demonstrates what he came to Old Trafford for.
Chelsea | Raheem Sterling – £325,000
Sterling is one of those who has weathered the big earthquake so far. What’s more, things are looking significantly more promising under new coach Mauricio Pochettino. Moreover, the English winger has been given a chance in the starting line-up.
Arsenal | Kai Havertz – £280,000
According to Capology, Havertz had a wage of £250,000 a week at Chelsea, so he has improved his wages at the London rival. The 24-year-old German midfielder cost the Gunners €75 million, so it will be interesting to see if he will pay back his high price tag.
He didn’t exactly do well at Chelsea, who paid as much as €80 million for him in 2020, scoring 32 goals and 15 assists in 139 games.
Newcastle United | Sandro Tonali – £210,000
Newcastle’s biggest signing of the summer made his mark right from the start. Fans believe he will continue these performances. So far, he is definitely paying back his high wages.
Tottenham | Tanguy Ndombele – £200,000
Aston Villa | Youri Tielemans & Boubacar Kamara – £150,000
West Ham United | Lucas Paqueta – £150, 000
Everton | Jordan Pickford – £125,000
Fulham | Raul Jimenez – £100,000
Brighton & Hove Albion | Adam Lallana – £90,000
Crystal Palace | Odsonne Edouard – £90,000
Wolverhampton | Pablo Sarabia & Goncalo Guedes – £90,000
Nottingham Forest | Chris Wood, Felipe & Morgan Gibbs-White – £80,000
Bournemouth | Justin Kluivert – £80,000
Brentford | Ben Mee – £55,000
Burnley | Josh Brownhill – £40,000
Sheffield United | Rhian Brewster – £27,500
Luton Town | Allan Campbell – £8,462
