🏦 Who is Arsenal’s highest-paid player?
Kai Havertz is believed to be the highest-paid player in the Arsenal team at the time of writing. The attacker signed for the Gunners over the summer of 2023 from London rivals Chelsea. He has a contract until June 2028. His weekly salary costs an estimated £330,000 a week, according to the German publication Bild.
Havertz’s wages, though, still fall short of the £350,000-per-week that Arsenal paid Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Mesut Ozil from 2018 until 2022.
⚖️ Comparison to the other Premier League players
Despite Saka’s high salary, he is still a long way off matching the highest-paid players in the Premier League. The biggest earner in the English top flight is Kevin De Bruyne. The Manchester City midfielder brings home a reported £400,000 per week.
