Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland from Manchester City are the top earners in the Premier League's highest paid XI, as per recent revelations.
In terms of remuneration, certain footballers justify their pay through their performances, while others seem to be overpaid in relation to their contributions.
Given that Haaland recently scored his 49th goal of the season, he would be considered a valuable asset to Manchester City, justifying whatever salary they are paying him.
According to reports, Manchester City, who are the current Premier League champions, are seeking to increase Haaland's salary, less than a year since his arrival, to prevent Real Madrid from potentially acquiring him in the near future.
Following his errors during Manchester United's loss to Sevilla, there have been questions raised about why David de Gea, who is currently the world's highest paid goalkeeper, holds that title.
David de Gea was responsible for at least two of the three goals conceded by Manchester United, with Harry Maguire also being partly responsible. Additionally, he failed to save a penalty during the FA Cup semi-final against Brighton, despite his overall performance being better than before.
Should David de Gea continue playing for Manchester United beyond the current season, he may soon no longer be the highest earner at the club.
At present, he is part of the Premier League's highest paid XI, along with Haaland and De Bruyne, as reported by Spotrac.

It's certainly a mixed bag when it comes to which of the players have really earned their money, with De Bruyne, recently named the best ever Premier League midfielder, definitely in the camp of earning the money.
There's also no doubt that Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah and United's Casemiro have done enough to put themselves on the list.
Reece James' form this season has been somewhat questionable, along with the rest of the Blues' squad, but he has been very good previously.
Raphael Varane is worth the money when fit, but there's no doubt that Erik ten Hag would like him to be available more often.
Outside of that though, there's some big questions around the rest, with Kalidou Koulibaly certainly not living up to his reputation, since arriving in England from Napoli last summer.
Likewise, Ivan Perisic is hardly the biggest problem at Tottenham Hotspur but he was part of a defence that conceded five in 21 minutes against Newcastle United last week.
Enzo Fernandez hasn't been particularly woeful but again, as the most expensive transfer in British football history, the World Cup winner isn't exactly living up to that kind of money.
He was part of the world's most expensive substitution and does have the chance to one day make his wages worth it, after all, he'll be in England for another nine years.
Lastly, Jadon Sancho has shown glimpses for United, but he's yet to live up to his Borussia Dortmund form, transfer fee or wages at Old Trafford.
