Premier League: Top 10 highest earners

10 Samir Nasri 
The 26-year-old moved to Manchester City from Arsenal for £24million in 2011, as he wanted to compete for trophies after the Gunners had gone several years without winning a piece of silverware. 
Money also probably played a big part in Nasri's to swap north London for Manchester as the Frenchman earns a reported £140,000 at the Citizens. 

9 Steven Gerrard 
Liverpool's captain fantastic is the highest paid footballer at Anfield, earning £30,000 more than Luis Suarez per week. 
England captain Gerrard, 33, is said to be on an incredible £140,000 a week. 

8 David Silva 
The Manchester City playmaker moved to the Premier League from Valencia for a fee believed to be in the region of £24million. 
Silva, who has scored five goals in 13 games for the Citizens this season, earns £160,000 per week. 

7 Mesut Ozil 
Arsenal forked out £42.4million on former Real Madrid star Mesut Ozil and also broke their wage structure. 
Arsene Wenger's side are said to be paying Ozil £160,000 per week. 

6 John Terry 
The Chelsea defender, whose current contract runs out at the end of the season, has been a terrific servant to the west London side. 
Blues skipper John Terry earns a reported £175,000 per week. 

5 Fernando Torres 
The Spaniard has failed to replicate his outstanding goalscoring record at Stamford Bridge - but seems to have grown in confidence under Jose Mourinho. Torres earns £175,000 per week - putting him on a par with John Terry. 


4 Robin van Persie 
The Dutchman was an instant hit at Old Trafford - helping the Red Devils win their 20th domestic league title. Van Persie is said to be on the same weekly wage as fellow Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney - taking home £180,000 per week. 

3 Wayne Rooney 
Rooney earns the same amount of money per week as Robin van Persie - with both players pocketing £180,000 per week. 

2 Yaya Toure 
Former Barcelona midfielder Toure takes home a staggering £180,000 per week. 

1 Eden Hazard
