Have you ever wondered who is the highest paid player of each Premier League club?
It’s no news that the Premier League is the richest League in Europe with over £1 billion revenue.
The English Premier League (EPL) is the most lucrative football league in the world.
Most of the world’s best footballers are in the Premier League. Most of the world’s top football managers are in the Premier League. Most of the world’s most lucrative football investments are in the Premier League.
Without much ado, let’s take a look at the highest paid player of each English Premier League club.
- Manchester United: Cristiano Ronaldo rejoined Manchester United from Juventus in August 2021. The deal is a two-year contract with the option to extend for a further year. During the two-year contract, he will be paid £510,000 per week, making him the highest paid Premier League player at the moment.
Not surprised! His football credentials are intimidating and most players will never get to his level and also remain in that level throughout their playing career:
Cristiano, a five-time Ballon D’or winner, has so far won over 30 major trophies during his career, including five UEFA Champions League titles, four FIFA Club World Cups, seven league titles in England, Spain and Italy, and the UEFA European Championship for his native Portugal. Cristiano is the first player to have won league titles in England, Spain and Italy. He was also the highest goalscorer in last season’s Serie A and won the golden boot at this year’s European Championship. In his first spell for Manchester United, he scored 118 goals in 292 games.
Well deserved!
- Manchester City: Kevin De Bruyne of Manchester City comes second in the list earning £400,000 per week.
The Belgian is one of the best midfielders in the world and deserves every penny he is paid.
