Top 5 earners in the Premier League
Although the salaries at Brighton appear to be substantial, they are relatively modest when compared to the highest-paid players across the entirety of the Premier League. It's only natural that the list is dominated by the big names in the league.
Manchester City’s Erling Haaland sits at the top of the list having recently signed a nine-year contract, keeping him at the Etihad up until 2034. Following Haaland is yet another City star in Kevin De Bruyne, while Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah makes the cut at number three.
