Salary Insights

Key takeaways from the wage structure.

Botman Out-earns All Forwards

Despite being a centre-back, Sven Botman (€8.7M) earns more than every single forward at the club, including the top-earning attacker Yoane Wissa (€8.4M).

Two Midfielders Earn More Than Four

The combined salary of central midfielders Bruno Guimarães (€9.8M) and Joelinton (€9.4M) is €19.2M. This is significantly more than the combined €15.0M earned by the other four midfielders in the squad: Jacob Ramsey, Joe Willock, Lewis Miley, and Joe White.

Trio's Wages Exceed Entire Defense

The combined annual salaries of the club's top three earners—Bruno Guimarães (€9.8M), Joelinton (€9.4M), and Sven Botman (€8.7M)—total €27.9M. This amount is greater than the wage bill for the entire seven-player defensive unit, which totals €27.5M.

One Defender Earns More Than All Full-Backs

Centre-back Sven Botman's annual salary of €8.7M is greater than the combined wages of all three of the club's full-backs: Valentino Livramento, Lewis Hall, and Alex Murphy, who together earn €6.4M.

One Midfielder's Salary Anomaly

Attacking midfielder Joe White's annual salary of €46K is a significant outlier on the wage bill. His earnings are more than ten times lower than the next lowest-paid outfield player, defender Alex Murphy (€500K).

Goalkeeper Matches Defender's Pay

Goalkeeper Nick Pope's annual salary of €3.7M is exactly the same as that of centre-back Fabian Schär.
