Behind heung min son is Tottenham star attacker, Cristian Romero, who shares second place with English midfielder,James Maddison , with both taking home a cool £200,000 per week.

Tottenham Hotspur have established themselves as one of the country’s ‘big six’ clubs with regular qualification for the Champions League over the last eight years. Ironically, this season marks their first campaign since 2009/10 where the club have not been involved in any form of European competition
However, they remain one of the league’s biggest clubs, and they do have the wage bill to put them among the top end of the league. Although it may not quite be as astronomical as some of their competitors, Spurs do still fork out a whopping £110.76m per year to their players.
To put that into context, Spurs come in as the league’s sixth-highest spenders on wages, with Manchester City top with a stunning £216.2m spent on wages this year. However, the likes of Aston Villa and Newcastle United follow in closely behind the Lilywhites, with north of £100m spent by both clubs.
Now, with the 2023/24 season in its final throes, we have taken a look into which players at Tottenham are now earning the most in what is very much a new-look Spurs. All earnings are based on reports via Capology.
Disclaimer: Only the club and the players themselves truly know their wages, so take each of these figures as you will.
Ben Davies is one of those players you can always rely on to come in and do a job anywhere across the back four, and is a handy member of Ange Postecoglou’s squad.
As one of the longest-serving players at the club with plenty of international experience, you can understand why he’s on a big wage.
Postecoglou signed Radu Dragusin from Italian side Genoa for around £26.7m in the January transfer window.
He’s not really had the opportunities to justify his large salary so far though, with just a handful of appearances to his name.
Porro’s initial loan in north London was made permanent over the summer after joining from Sporting CP in January. And the Spaniard seems to have won the battle for the spot at right-back under Postecoglou.
Despite not starting the season-opener against Brentford, Porro has quickly established himself in Postecoglou’s back four, having notched up an impressive eight assists and one goal.
Tottenham’s club-record signing, Richarlison comes in with a fairly modest weekly wage – considering the £60m needed to sign him. However, he remains another player who is struggling to live up to the huge cost of bringing him to north London.
Last season, his struggles were clear for all to see. But now Harry Kane has departed the club, his path to the starting spot up top has become much clearer. Yet, his struggles to find the back of the net have dissipated somewhat this season, as he’s bagged 11 goals and three assists.
Life under Postecoglou has not quite gotten off to the best start for Tottenham’s Danish midfielder, with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s regular spot in the starting XI diminished under Ange.
The midfielder still remains one of the club’s top earners on £100k per week, having remained with the north London outfit despite a lot of reported summer interest.
Indeed, it is believed both Atletico Madrid and Fulham showed a serious interest in the 28-year-old, who now seems to be an extremely strong option off the bench for Spurs.
