First-team players at Manchester United are earning on average half a million pounds a year more than Premier League champions and rivals Manchester City.
United players are also picking almost double what Tottenham are paying their first-team squad, says new data from the Global Sports Salaries Survey.
Meanwhile, Barcelona have become the first sports team to pay an average yearly salary of more than £10m.
Real Madrid, Juventus and Manchester United are also in the top 10 spenders.
The other six clubs in the top 10 all come from the NBA.
Clubs in the Premier League are paying, on average, more than top-flight football clubs in any other country per game, although cricket’s Indian Premier League and American football’s NFL top the spending on a per-game basis. (BBC)
