The rankings of the 10 highest-paid goalkeepers in the world have been published by Capology.
1. Jan Oblak — £342,000 per week
The Atletico Madrid number one has emerged as the highest-paid goalkeeper in the world at the beginning of this year, following a pay cut by the previous leader. The 33-year-old Slovenian has been guarding the net for the Spanish club for over a decade and is considered a true legend of La Liga. He has two years remaining on his contract.
2. Marc-André ter Stegen — £271,000 per week
The German keeper is currently on loan at Ajax, with the Dutch club covering only about 10% of his wages. The bulk of his earnings is still being borne by Barcelona, where the 32-year-old has a contract running until 2028.
3. Gianluigi Donnarumma — £265,000 per week
The Italian takes the title of the highest-paid goalkeeper in the Premier League. Last summer, Manchester City signed him from Paris Saint-Germain. In his first season with the Cityzens, Donnarumma played 43 matches and earned more than ever before in his career.
4. Manuel Neuer — £247,000 per week
The veteran Neuer recently topped this list but has accepted a salary reduction under his new short-term contract with Bayern Munich at the age of 40.
5. Thibaut Courtois — £246,000 per week
The Belgian goalkeeper from Real Madrid earns almost the same as Neuer. The 34-year-old is in the final year of his contract with the Spanish giants.
6. Edouard Mendy — £197,000 per week
The former Chelsea stopper moved to Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli in 2023, helping the team clinch the Asian Champions League title twice. He extended his deal with the club until 2028 in December 2025.
7. Emiliano Martinez — £175,000 per week
According to SalaryLeaks, the Argentine now earns £175,000 a week following his move to Chelsea, an increase from his time at Aston Villa. Since arriving in London, Martinez has quickly become the first-choice keeper.
8. Yassine Bounou — £167,000 per week
The Moroccan left Sevilla for Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal in 2023. He signed a new contract in October 2025, which lasts until 2028.
9. Jordan Pickford — £150,000 per week
England's first-choice goalkeeper and Everton star secured a pay rise when he extended his contract in October 2025. Pickford has been a consistent presence in the Premier League for a decade now.
10. Alisson — £150,000 per week
The Brazilian is entering his final year on contract with Liverpool. He has long been one of the league's top keepers, but the Merseysiders are already planning for the future, having signed Georgian goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili.
