5) Manchester City – £248m
Since the arrival of Pep Guardiola, Manchester City tried to get him the best squad possible to win the title in his debut season and the club’s first in three years. However, while Guardiola was not short on attacking options, his ageing defence let him down this season.
The squad will undergo a massive cull this summer and already four players have been let go while midfielder Bernardo Silva and goalkeeper Ederson have already been signed from Monaco and Benfica respectively.
Long-time servants Sergio Aguero and Yaya Toure both took home £220K per week while Raheem Sterling is on £180K per week. Other high earners include David Silva at £160K per week and Kevin De Bruyne at £150K per week.
