5. John Terry:
Captain and Legend at Chelsea naturally makes it into this list at £200000 a week. His leadership and discipline in defense has kept Chelsea at the top of theie defensive game and they have been one of the best defenses in Europe for some time now.
4. Sergio Aguero:
The Argentinean striker who has failed to perform due to injuries in the second half of the last season is still an impact making player. His goal in extra time to win Manchester City their first title in 44 years will probably be the most exciting goal scored in the history of the competition. Rightfully he falls in the list with a salary of £200000 a week.
3. Yaya Toure:
The Manchester City key-man earns £ 240000 a week in salary from his club. Owned by a Sheikh, the club can definitely afford the salary and his 24 goals and 12 assists for his club in all competitions in the 2013/14 season helped them win the Premier League.
2. Robin Van Persie:
Arsenal’s golden boy was whisked away from the The Emirates two seasons ago by Sir Alex Fergusson and the £ 250000 salary would have definitely been a big consideration for him in the move.
1. Wayne Rooney:
The Manchester United forward, who teased Mourinho last season saying he wanted to move away, signed a new contract in February for four years at a reported £ 300000 a week. This is currently the highest salary in the League and Rooney will continue to be with his current club till the end of the 2019 season.
