It's fair to say that Manchester City and Manchester United dominate proceedings, with stars from Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal also in the mix.
The German international joined Arsenal from Chelsea in the summer for a reported £65 million and has hit 10 goals in all competitions.
He reportedly collects £280,000-a-week and a gross salary of £14,560,000.
Next up is the first of four City players, with Bernardo Silva's latest contract extension improving his weekly wage to £300,000-a-week.
The £100 million winger is also said to take home £300,000-a-week and £15,600,000 per annum.
On the other side of Manchester, United academy graduate Marcus Rashford is one of the club's top earners on the same salary as the aforementioned pair of City players.
Raheem Sterling penned a contract until 2027 with Chelsea back just under two years ago and his terms also see him earn £300,000-a-week.
The Manchester United defender's contract is due to expire in the summer and any potential suitors will have to splash out on his £340,000-a-week wages.
Liverpool do not typically fork out on huge contracts but they broke their structure for talisman Salah, offering him a £350,000-a-week deal that he signed in July 2022.
Manchester United's decision to snap up a then-30-year-old Casemiro for a fee of £72 million and on a four-year deal worth £72.8 million in wages continues to mystify fans given how his level has dropped this term.
The Norwegian sensation enjoyed a record-breaking first season at City, scoring 52 goals in 53 games as they won the treble - more than justifying his £375,000-a-week pay packet.
City's Belgian playmaker has arguably been the best midfielder in the world for a number of years. He knows his worth and once hired a data analytics company to help negotiate a new deal.
His current terms are a league-high wage of £400,000-a-week before they expire in June 2025.
