Wolverhampton Wanderers wages: Who is the best paid player at Wolves and everything you need to know about Wolverhampton's salary bill

Wolves returned to the Premier League in 2018 after a six-year absence from the English top-flight and they have held their own since.

In the first season since their return (2018-19), Wolves finished in seventh place and punched way above their weight under the tutelage of Portuguese manager Nuno Espirito Santo, who is currently working wonders at Nottingham Forest.

They repeated the feat in the 2019-20 season by finishing seventh again, but then they lost several key players such as Ruben Neves, Raul Jimenez, Diogo Jota, Conor Coady, etc. Since the 2020-21 season, Wolves have failed to finish the league campaign in the top half of the table.
