The 2022/23 Premier League season is now mere days away from kicking off. Home to some of the biggest talents in the global game, the annual value of the English top-flight’s TV rights revenue now exceeds a staggering £10 billion.
With the Premier League attracting so much cash, it goes without saying that its prominent names are handsomely compensated for their efforts.
The competition’s leading scorers might dominate the headlines, but we’ve seen increasing wages for those in creative and defensive roles across recent years too.
With that in mind, we’ve decided to take a look at the five highest-earning Premier League players in each position. To simplify matters slightly, we’ve split the competition’s stars into seven categories, depending on their position: goalkeepers, left-backs, centre-backs, right-backs, central midfielders, wingers and strikers.
