The English top-flight includes some of the richest clubs in world football, so it’s no surprise that players are earning the big bucks.
The likes of Kevin De Bruyne is thought to earn a whopping £400,000 per-week, while Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah takes home a reported £350,000. However, not everyone is quite so fortunate. A report from Sports Khabri, using data from Capology, has compiled the 10 lowest paid Premier League players of the 2023/24 season. Mind you, they are not exactly scraping a living.
There are a few names you may recognise on the list, including former Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius.
The 30-year-old, famous for his catastrophic night in the Champions League final against Real Madrid in 2018, moved to Newcastle United in September 2022. He is currently back-up for Nick Pope at St James’ Park and earns just £10,000 per-week at the Tyneside club, with his contract due to expire in June 2024.
Without further ado, here is the full list in descending order.
10. Max Lowe | Sheffield United (£10,000 p/w) 9. Tommy Doyle | Wolverhampton Wanderers (£10,000 p/w)
8. George Baldock | Sheffield United (£10,000 p/w)
