Key takeaways from the wage structure.

Top Full-Back Out-earns Top Striker

The club's highest-paid defender, Right-Back Jonjoe Kenny (€1.6M), earns more than the highest-paid forward, Center Forward Fedor Chalov (€1.4M), highlighting a significant investment in the defensive flanks.

One Defender Out-earns Five Forwards

Right-Back Jonjoe Kenny's individual salary of €1.6M is greater than the combined salaries of the five lowest-paid forwards on the team (Shola Shoretire, Alexander Jeremejeff, Dimitrios Chatsidis, Anestis Mythou, and Dimitrios Berdos), which totals just under €1M.

Two Left-Backs Out-earn All Goalkeepers

The combined salary of the two primary Left-Backs, Abdul Rahman Baba and Greg Taylor (€2.2M total), is greater than the wage bill for the entire four-man goalkeeping department, which totals €2.0M.

Youthful Midfield Earns Elite Pay

Two of the club's top five earners are just 23 years old: Central Midfielder Christos Zafeiris (€1.6M) and Attacking Midfielder Giannis Konstantelias (€1.5M), out-earning most of the squad's veterans.

Three Midfielders Nearly Out-earn Attack

The combined salaries of the top three midfielders, Mady Camara, Christos Zafeiris, and Giannis Konstantelias, total €4.8M, which is just shy of the entire €5.3M wage bill for all nine forwards combined.

A €1.2M Trio Across The Pitch

A Center-Back (Aritz Elustondo), a Defensive Midfielder (Soualiho Meïté), and a Right Winger (Andrija Živković) all earn the exact same salary of €1.2M, forming a unique salary cluster that spans all three outfield lines of the team.
