Five highest paid football players at Manchester City

Manchester City are one of the richest clubs in world football. The success story started when Sheikh Mansour took ownership of the club. With the money, the Sky Blues have been able to assemble a world-class team. Given that Premier League clubs are awarded around £100m just from TV rights, it puts them in a very advantageous position when negotiating to buy players. The arrival of Pep Guardiola has further strengthened the squad. The defending Champions have several star players at their club. Here is a list of the top five highest earning players at Manchester City. Fernandinho - £150,000 / week Fernandino, who signed his first deal with Manchester City in 2013, renewed his contract with the club 5 years later. Now his weekly wage is £150,000 per-week. However, his contract expires in 2020. David Silva - £220,000 / week David Silva joined City from Valencia in 2010 and after 7 years has signed a one-year contract extension, which keeps the Spaniard at the Etihad stadium until 2020. His weekly wage is £220,000. Sergio Aguero - £250,000 / week Sergio Aguero, who joined from Atletico Madrid in 2011, signed a five-year deal and a one-year extension in summer 2016, which will keep him at the club until June 2021. His weekly wage is £250,000. Raheem Sterling - £300,000 / week Raheem Sterling joined Manchester City from Liverpool in 2015 and signed a 5-year deal with a £180,000 per week. He has long been linked with a move away from Manchester City, however, on November, Sterling has signed a three-year contract extension and will remain at the Etihad until at least 2023. The new deal could earn him as much as £300,000 per week. Kevin De Bruyne - £350,000 / week Who is the highest paid player in Manchester City? Yes, Kevin De Bruyne. The Belgian international joined Manchester City in 2015 and after three amazing seasons with the club, he signed a new deal until June 2023, which is worth £350,000 a week. The 27-year-old has made 150 appearances for Manchester City, scored 37 goals and made 56 assists. However, this season he has only made eight appearances for his club, due to injury and has scored 2 goals and provided one assist.
