The Premier League has some amazing English talent at their disposal right now and Jadon Sancho is definitely one of them. The Englishman was signed by Manchester United at the start of the season from Borussia Dortmund.

With his blistering pace, mind-boggling dribbling, and brilliant creative abilities, Sancho was very difficult to contain at Dortmund. In his 104 Bundesliga appearances, the English winger scored 38 goals and registered 45 assists.

At United, the youngster has taken his time to settle but is slowly looking to get back into form. Sancho currently earns £350,000 per week and is contracted until June 2026.


LW: Raheem Sterling

Raheem Sterling is one of the Premier League's finest wingers right now. The former Liverpool forward has been a key player for Manchester City since joining them in 2015.

In his 216 appearances for the Citizens, Sterling has scored 88 goals and registered 39 assists so far. His quick footwork, fine dribbling and goal-scoring abilities make him quite the threat in attack.

The English winger currently earns £300,000 per week and is contracted until June 2023. Raheem Sterling is on par with his teammate Jack Grealish as far as wages are concerned.


ST: Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo is back in the Premier League after deciding to return to Manchester United last summer. He has arguably been one of the best players in the world for a long time now. His presence has surely made the league more attractive.

The Portuguese superstar has scored nine goals and registered three assists in the league this season. Using his brilliant and clinical finishing, Ronaldo is a massive threat in the box.

Due to his legendary status, there is always immense pressure on the former Real Madrid forward to be highly efficient in front of goal. Ronaldo's recent six-match goal drought in over a decade attracted a lot of criticism. But it was all silenced when he scored against Brighton & Hove Albion this week.

He has dominated every league that he has played in to date. There is no doubt that Ronaldo will achieve the same in the Premier League with time.

He currently earns £510,000 per week and is contracted until June 2023. He remains the highest paid player in England's top-tier division right now.
