However, that number decreases rapidly down in the championship where a better player will earn about £30,000 a week (nonetheless a huge sum).
In League 1, a top player will earn up to £10,000 whereas in League 2 this is halved to £5,000 a week. Bear in mind this is talking about the best players in that divison so an average League 2 player would be expected to make between £1,000-2,000 a week.
