Manchester City's Staggering Salaries Revealed Amid Financial Scandal

With the club under intense scrutiny over its financial case, the enormous figures behind its star-studded squad are back in the spotlight.

City's Wage Bill Comes Under the Spotlight

Manchester City are facing one of the most delicate periods in their recent history, with reports indicating that an independent commission found the club guilty on the majority of the charges in the long-running financial case.

Against that backdrop, the enormous sums tied to City's squad have inevitably attracted renewed attention. According to Capology, the club's estimated fixed wage bill stands at around £233.2 million per year, excluding bonuses.

At the top of the list sits Erling Haaland, whose estimated base salary reaches £525,000 per week, or roughly £27.3 million per year before bonuses.

Haaland Leads a Star-Studded Payroll

The Norwegian striker is not only City's biggest star on the pitch, but also the clear leader when it comes to estimated wages.

Behind him comes Enzo Fernández, reportedly earning around £18.2 million per year, while Phil Foden is estimated to make approximately £14.5 million annually.

Other major names including Jérémy Doku, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Marc Guéhi, Josko Gvardiol and Rúben Dias are also estimated to earn around or above £13 million per season.

How Much Do Manchester City's Biggest Stars Earn?

Among the club's highest estimated fixed annual salaries are:

Erling Haaland: £27.3 million
Enzo Fernández: £18.2 million
Phil Foden: £14.5 million
Jérémy Doku: £14.5 million
Gianluigi Donnarumma: £14.3 million
Marc Guéhi: £14 million
Josko Gvardiol: £13.5 million
Rúben Dias: £13.5 million

The figures are Capology estimates and are not official salary numbers released by Manchester City. They also do not necessarily include bonuses, image rights or other forms of compensation.

Financial Case Puts Every Number Under the Microscope

The timing gives these figures added significance. With City's finances once again at the center of English football's biggest controversy, every major number connected to the club is likely to face even greater scrutiny.

City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak has maintained the club's position as the case moves toward the next legal stage, with an appeal expected to follow.

For now, there is still no final public punishment in place. But while the process continues, everything from transfer spending to the club's wage bill will remain under an unusually bright spotlight.
