The 10 Highest-Paid Players In The Premier League

The EPL campaign got underway last Friday, when Manchester United hosted Fulham at Old Trafford. The Red Devils won all three points following a late winner, with three players who started for Erik ten Hag's side among the 10 best-paid players in the division.

Winger Marcus Rashford and captain Bruno Fernandes, according to Capology, each earn £300 000 (R7 million) a week in Manchester, while Brazilian midfielder Casemiro is believed be on a weekly wage of £350 000 (R8.2 million).

Also on £300 000 a week in the list are Manchester City duo Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish, while Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah's salary matches Casemiro's. The Egypt international has only one more year on his contract at the Reds, whom he joined from Roma in 2017.

Click through the gallery to see the EPL's 10 highest-paid players and their weekly wages: 

Bernardo Silva
10. Bernardo Silva (Manchester City) – £300 000
Jack Grealish
9. Jack Grealish (Manchester City) – £300 000
Marcus Rashford
8. Marcus Rashford (Manchester United) – £300 000
Bruno Fernandes
7. Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United) – £300 000
Raheem Sterling
6. Raheem Sterling (Chelsea) – £325 000
Romelu Lukaku
5. Romelu Lukaku (Chelsea) – £325 000
Mohamed Salah
4. Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) – £350 000
Casemiro
3. Casemiro (Manchester United) – £350 000
Erling Haaland
2. Erling Haaland (Manchester City) – £375 000
Kevin De Bruyne
1. Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) – £400 000

The 32-year-old set an incredible English record to start the new campaign, becoming the first player in the division's history to score on the opening weekend of a Premier League season for the ninth time.

Below Salah in the ranking are Chelsea duo Raheem Sterling and Romelu Lukaku, both of whom are not in Enzo Maresca's plans at Stamford Bridge. The latter is believed to be in talks to join Napoli in Italy, while the former has been linked with Aston Villa.

The pair are reportedly each paid £325 000 (R7.6 million) weekly by the Blues, but ahead of them, Salah and Casemiro are two of arguably the best players in the league in their respective positions – Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne.

While Capology reports that the record-breaking Norwegian goalscorer is on a salary of £375 000 (R8.8 million) a week under City manager Pep Guardiola, his world-class teammate is understood to be the EPL's top earner on £400 000 (R9.4 million) a week.

The top position could have fallen to Haaland had De Bruyne been more tempted by interest from Saudi Arabia earlier in this window, with the Belgian international's current deal expiring in 2025. He had suggested he would be open to a move to the Middle East, but Guardiola has insisted on retaining his services.
