Arsenal Squad Wages Revealed: Bruno Guimaraes Among Top Earners
Arsenal have confirmed the wages of their new signing Bruno Guimaraes, with the Brazilian midfielder set to earn £250,000 per week at the Emirates.
This significant pay rise for Guimaraes, who previously earned £160,000 per week at Newcastle, will place him joint fourth in Arsenal's pay structure, above his new midfield colleagues Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard.
A breakdown of every player in Arsenal's squad reveals a wide range of salaries, with Bukayo Saka topping the list on £300,000 per week. Kai Havertz is second, earning £280,000, while Gabriel Jesus takes third place with £265,000. Guimaraes is tied with William Saliba for fourth place, both earning £250,000.
It's worth noting that the figures for the rest of the squad come from football finance website Capology, who estimate salaries based on various sources, including unverified reports. As such, the accuracy of these figures may vary.
The Arsenal squad's wage structure is a notable aspect of the club's financial management, with top earners commanding significant salaries. Meanwhile, players like Fabio Vieira and Myles Lewis-Skelly are at the lower end of the scale, earning £45,000 per week.
The deal for Guimaraes, worth an initial £75million, is a significant investment for Arsenal, who are looking to strengthen their midfield options. The Brazil international has scored 31 goals in 195 appearances for Newcastle since joining from Lyon in 2022.
As the transfer window continues to unfold, it will be interesting to see how Arsenal's wage structure evolves in the coming weeks and months. Will the club look to make further signings, and how will they manage the salaries of their existing players? Only time will tell.
Arsenal are set to face Manchester City in their next Premier League match, with Guimaraes expected to make his debut.
