Salary Insights

Key takeaways from the wage structure.

A Chasm in the Midfield

There is a massive wage disparity within the midfield. Ben Winterburn's €185K salary is less than one-tenth of the next lowest-paid midfielder, Alex Tóth (€2.4M), and is dwarfed by the top midfield earner, Justin Kluivert (€5.0M).

Top Goalkeepers Out-earn Star Striker

The combined annual salary of the top two goalkeepers, Đorđe Petrović (€3.4M) and Michele Di Gregorio (€3.0M), totals €6.4M. This sum is significantly greater than the salary of the club's single highest earner, centre-forward Evanilson (€5.3M).

Right-Backs Dominate Defensive Wages

The four right-backs in the squad command a combined salary of €12.7M. This accounts for 47% of the entire €27.0M wage bill for the 10-man defense.

Youthful Defense Earns Big

The club's two highest-paid players aged 23 or younger are both defenders. 23-year-old right-back Juanlu Sánchez earns €5.0M, and 22-year-old centre-back António Silva earns €3.7M, out-earning all other young players in midfield and attack.

Goalkeepers Command Elite Salaries

All three goalkeepers are among the club's higher earners. The lowest-paid keeper, Fraser Forster at €2.5M, earns more than 10 of the 26 outfield players on the roster.

Defender and Midfielder Share Second Spot

Right-back Juanlu Sánchez and attacking midfielder Justin Kluivert both earn exactly €5.0M annually. This places them as the joint second-highest earners at the club, behind only the top striker.

Bournemouth's Salary Structure

The squad's salaries are grouped into several tiers. An elite tier above €5.0M is occupied solely by Evanilson (€5.3M). A top-performer tier at €5.0M includes Justin Kluivert and Juanlu Sánchez. A key player bracket exists between €4.0M and €4.5M, featuring players like Ryan Christie, Bafodé Diakité, David Brooks, and Amine Adli. A large group of core squad players earns between €2.1M and €3.8M, with a developmental tier for those earning below €2.0M.

Sánchez Leads The Defensive Line

Right-back Juanlu Sánchez is the highest-paid defender at the club with a €5.0M annual salary. His wage places him as the joint second-highest earner in the entire squad.

Kluivert Paces the Midfield

Attacking midfielder Justin Kluivert is the highest-paid midfielder at the club with a €5.0M annual salary. His wage places him as the joint second-highest earner in the entire squad.

Evanilson Is The Club's Top Earner
