Salary Insights

Key takeaways from the wage structure.

Two Stars Earn More Than Entire Defense

The combined €22.0M salary of top earners N'Golo Kanté and Ederson is greater than the total wage bill for all eight defenders in the squad, which stands at €20.8M.

Midfield Wages Dwarf Other Units

The club's eight midfielders collectively earn €40.6M. This figure surpasses the combined wages of the entire eight-player defense (€20.8M) and five-player attack (€12.9M) put together.

A Midfield of Two Halves

There is a significant wage divide within the midfield. The top five midfielders earn between €4.0M and €11.0M annually. In contrast, the other three midfielders—Mert Hakan Yandaş, İsmail Yüksek, and Abdou Aziz Fall—all earn less than €650K per year.

Backup Goalkeeper Out-earns Two Midfielders

Second-choice goalkeeper Mert Günok's €1.2M salary is higher than the combined wages of two of the club's midfielders, İsmail Yüksek (€630K) and Abdou Aziz Fall (€150K).

Teenage Striker Out-earns Five Defenders

At just 19 years old, forward Sidiki Cherif earns €2.5M per year. This salary is higher than five defenders in the squad: Archie Brown (€1.9M), Jayden Oosterwolde (€1.5M), Mert Müldür (€1.2M), Munir Mercan (€640K), and Yiğit Efe Demir (€130K).

The Two Merts on Matching Salaries

Goalkeeper Mert Günok and right-back Mert Müldür are on the exact same annual salary of €1.2M, despite playing in different positions and having a ten-year age gap (36 vs 26).

The €10M Elite Tier

The club has a clear top tier of earners, with three players on salaries of €10.0M or more. This elite group consists of N'Golo Kanté (€11.0M), Ederson (€11.0M), and Anderson Talisca (€10.0M). The next highest earner is Marco Asensio at €9.0M.

Kanté and Ederson Share The Crown

Midfielder N'Golo Kanté and Goalkeeper Ederson are the club's joint highest-paid players, both earning an annual salary of €11.0M.

Škriniar Leads The Defensive Line

With a salary of €8.0M, center-back Milan Škriniar is the highest-paid defender at the club. His salary is nearly double that of the next highest-paid defender, Nélson Semedo (€4.4M).

Aktürkoğlu Leads The Forward Line

Kerem Aktürkoğlu is the highest-paid forward with an annual salary of €6.3M, earning more than double the next highest attacker, Sidiki Cherif (€2.5M).

Transfer rumour salaries: Sancho, Vlahović, Sørloth, Lewandowski, and Durán

Latest reported salary figures for players linked with a move to the club.

Fenerbahçe is prepared to offer Jadon Sancho a salary of around 200,000 euros per week, or an annual salary of 12 million euros, which matches his reported demands. Fenerbahçe has offered Dusan Vlahovic a yearly salary of 10 million euros, proposing a four-year contract with this net salary per season. Alexander Sörloth previously demanded a 12 million Euro salary, with Fenerbahçe attempting to negotiate this down to between 7 and 8 million Euro, although reports also state an agreement was reached on a 12 million euro salary.
