Unsurprisingly, the most recently relegated clubs all dominate the higher echelons of the 2024\/25 EFL Championship wage bill listings.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Burnley and Sheffield United earned podium positions with Luton Town just missing out on the top four. However, it’s the current league leaders who boast the highest yearly payroll.<\/p>\n

Leeds United – who are the 1\/8 title favourites with the best football betting sites<\/a> in the UK – pay their stars approximately \u00a38 million more than their nearest rival.<\/p>\n

That in itself is quite staggering considering they sold Georginio Rutter, Crysencio Summerville and academy wonderkid Archie Gray to Premier League<\/a> sides in the summer.<\/p>\n

Naturally, the Yorkshire giants pays the highest weekly Championship wage bill at \u00a3715,500.\u00a0 This is just shy of \u00a3140,000 more than the club in second position.<\/p>\n

At the other end of the spectrum, two of last season’s promoted sides occupy the 24th and 22nd position. Portsmouth pay the least followed by Plymouth and then Oxford.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, playoff-chasing Sunderland have one of the lower Championship wage bills. Yet, that hasn’t stopped the Black Cats from closing in on a top-flight return.<\/p>\n

Bedfordshire side Luton have a hugely underwhelming campaign so far. The Hatters are in serious danger of back-to-back relegations despite their extortionate wage bill.<\/p>\n

The new Erling Haaland contract<\/a> at Manchester City makes the EFL Championship look like small fry when it comes to a monetary sense. Just three sides pay out more per-week than what the City star pockets every seven days!<\/p>\n
