Manchester City striker Erling Haaland earns nearly £900,000 per week at the Etihad.
This summer, the Norwegian international joined from Borussia Dortmund in a £51 million deal.
However, the true cost of the transaction was much higher due to agent fees and subsequent signing-on arrangements.
According to the Daily Mail, Haaland earns significantly more in add-ons than any other player, making him the highest-paid player.
Haaland is set to earn a total of £45m in his first season with City, which breaks down into a staggering £865,000 per week.
Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo became the highest-paid player in the Premier League following his return to Old Trafford.
But the Portuguese superstar earns £25.5m per year, which is substantially less than Haaland’s current wage.
