The goal of England manager Thomas Tuchel is to win the 2026 World Cup, which will take place in North America. The German tactician has selected the best players for his first squad, though the unexpected inclusion of Jordan Henderson infuriated many England supporters.
Since the 2024–25 season began, every Englishman has been giving their all for their individual teams, and in football, money is everything. With the arrival of oil states and businesses, the beautiful game’s terrain is only growing more dominated by finance.
However, what is the salary of Tuchel’s first England team? We’ve examined their salary data from Capology, ranging from the youthful and inexperienced players like Tino Livramento and Myles Lewis-Skelly to the more seasoned selections like Kyle Walker and Declan Rice. This is the weekly take-home pay for every current England player.
Goalkeepers
Three of the four goalkeepers make at least £100,000 a week.

According to Capology, England’s four goalkeepers, or at least 75% of the German team’s four-man roster, are making a good living at the club level. Jordan Pickford, the highest earning, takes home a respectable £125,000 every week.
Pickford will probably be Tuchel’s top pick in the near future, but Southampton’s Aaron Ramsdale, whose play has caught West Ham United’s attention, will be a tough rival. His weekly salary on the south coast is £120,000.

In other news, Crystal Palace’s number one goalie, Dean Henderson, who was once a glove-bearer for Manchester United, earns £100,000 a week in south London. Henderson is considered one of the best English goalkeepers in world football.
The only goalie making less than £100,000 a week is Burnley’s James Trafford, who has been playing brilliantly lately. Even if he has kept a few clean sheets for the second division team this season, his weekly salary is a pitiful £25,000.

Lewis-Skelly, a young player for the Defenders, is the Three Lions’ lowest paid player.

Myles Lewis-Skelly of Arsenal and Dan Burn of Newcastle United have both been called up to senior international competition for the first time. While the latter receives a substantial £55,000 each week, the former just makes £4,000.
The future of the aforementioned Walker in England was previously uncertain. Tuchel included him because of his experience and global connections, and he currently makes £75,086 a week on loan at AC Milan. In other news, Jarell Quansah of Liverpool makes £30,000 a week.
Marc Guehi of Crystal Palace, who is regarded as one of the Premier League’s top centre backs at the moment, is England’s most seasoned choice at the centre of defence due to the injuries to John Stones and Harry Maguire. The Euro 2024 star’s weekly salary is £50,000.
From a defensive perspective, Chelsea’s Reece James and Levi Colwill are the most paid players in England. Despite his injuries, the former earns a substantial £250,000 each week, while the latter, 22, makes £100,000 each week.

Rice and Bellingham, two midfielders, receive extremely high salaries.

Jude Bellingham of Real Madrid and Declan Rice, the lynchpin for Arsenal, are unassailable targets for former Chelsea and Bayern Munich manager Tuchel going ahead. The skilled duo, who receive weekly salaries of £337,808 and £240,000, have established a strong working relationship in the England engine room.
Bellingham, the Los Blancos star, is the highest paid midfield player in England and has established himself as a Three Lions mainstay over the years. The aforementioned pair is closely followed by Cole Palmer, who is regarded as one of the greatest penalty takers in world football.
The 22-year-old playmaker from Manchester makes £130,000 on the Stamford Bridge books, while Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze, who will be desperate to secure a consistent position under Tuchel, makes a total of £100,000 per week in south London.
Morgan Gibbs-White, the talisman for Nottingham Forest, was called up late, but it doesn’t make him any less deserving because he has led the Garibaldi in their quest for Champions League football. His weekly salary of £80,000 is little under £5,000 more than that of Henderson, the struggling midfielder for Ajax.
Curtis Jones, who makes a pitiful £15,000 a week, is a bit out of Arne Slot’s plans at Liverpool. Nonetheless, the Scouser is eager to start on the global scene. The same is true of Morgan Rogers, who is tall but graceful and earns £75,000 a week.

Rashford and Kane are two of England’s top-earning attackers.

Due to Marcus Rashford’s comeback at Aston Villa, Krumbach-born coach Tuchel decided to bring him back, and the dynamic forward, who is currently on loan from Manchester United, earns £300,000 every week. Phil Foden makes £75,000 less than his countryman elsewhere.
Despite a decline in his performances this season, Foden, a six-time Premier League champion, is unquestionably talented. It’s unclear if the wide man, who is often considered to be among the best wingers in international football, plays from a central hub or out wide.

The Premier League’s Top 10 Free-Kick Takers of the Present [Ranked]
The top 10 free-kick takers in the Premier League right now, from Cole Palmer to Trent Alexander-Arnold, are mentioned.
Both Jarrod Bowen and Anthony Gordon are doing fantastic work for West Ham United and Newcastle United, respectively, on a weekly salary of £150,000. However, each of them has made a strong case to be taken into consideration by Tuchel, one of the top managers in the world of football.
Tuchel’s backup center-forward option from his six-man attack shortlist is Dominic Solanke. The 27-year-old striker for Tottenham Hotspur has amassed 11 goals and eight assists throughout all competitions for the north London-based team, earning £90,000 a week.
