Summary
The previous edition of the Premier League was full of action and drama, but it also witnessed numerous players receiving high wages. The competition is believed to be one of the most widely followed sports leagues in the world, not just in England.

His salary of £130,000 puts the player at eighth spot in the list of the lowest paid player in English Premier League.

|---|---|---|
| Attacking Midfielder | £2,500 | £130,000 |

-1756542687836.webp)
David Ozoh, who is registered with FA Cup winner Crystal Palace, earns a weekly salary of £2,000, which makes it £104,000 a year. The current salary bracket where the English player is placed makes him the lowest paid Premier League player as of the beginning of the 2025 season. Looking at its performance last season in the 2nd division of the English Football Pyramid, it is evident that he has the potential to be a the 'main guy' in the team. The career trajectory only shows fruitful years ahead of the English midfielder, but till then, he has to play with the tag of one of the lowest paid player in the Premier League.
| Position | Weekly Salary | Annual Salary |
|---|---|---|
| Midfielder | £2,000 | £104,000 |

Another Wolverhampton player has made it to the list of the lowest paid Premier League player. The Zimbabwe player Tawanda Chirewa earns a weekly salary of £2,000 for his services to Wolverhampton Wanderers.

|---|---|---|
| Goalkeeper | £1,500 | £78,000 |

-1756547495197.webp)
The Sunderland midfielder Dan Neil, earns £70,000 annually, placing him among the lowest paid player in the Premier League. His performance last season was decent, and if he continues playing the way he is now, the sky could be the limit for the English player. However, until he secures a regular spot in the starting eleven or finds a good club that believes in him, he has to be in the same bracket as other Premier League lowest paid player.
| Position | Weekly Salary | Annual Salary |
|---|---|---|
| Central Midfielder | £1,346 | £70,000 |
2. Harrison Armstrong – Everton
-1756547752801.webp)

Harrison Armstrong's current salary falls in the price range of £60,000 - £65,000, justifying his previous season's performance, where Harrison Armstrong played 3 matches for Everton without any major contributions. However, for an 18-year-old, salary should not be his main concern; instead, he must focus on improving his form, which could eventually lead to a rise from his current annual salary of £62,400, which has kept the player in the list of the lowest paid Premier League player.
| Position | Weekly Salary | Annual Salary |
