Salary Sport’s listed figures imply an estimated average of about £13,207 per player per week across its 76-player wage-listed Leicester City squad for 2023/24. That is a calculation from a publisher’s estimated wage bill—not a club-confirmed average or verified payroll figure.
How the estimated £13,207 weekly average is calculated
Salary Sport lists a 2023/24 weekly wage bill of £1,003,735 and a wage-listed squad of 76. Dividing the displayed total by the displayed count gives approximately £13,207 per player per week: £1,003,735 ÷ 76. The same page gives an estimated annual wage bill of £52,194,220. Salary Sport’s 2023/24 Leicester City wage page
This quotient is only as reliable as the source figures and their matching scope. Salary Sport’s published excerpt does not provide enough information to audit the wage-bill methodology or recompute the mean from all 76 individual entries. Treat £13,207 as an approximate, derived estimate, not an official club statistic.
Why Salary Sport also gives £43,719 a week
Salary Sport separately says that the average Leicester City player aged 22 or over earned £43,719 per week in 2023/24, based on 21 wage records. That figure describes a narrower age-qualified group, not all 76 players in its wage-listed squad. The two averages answer different questions and should not be substituted for one another.

What other figures do—and do not—show
SalaryLeaks gives estimated 2023/24 first-team squad salaries totaling €66.9 million and an average annual salary of €2.7 million. Its figures use euros and an apparently different population; the available information does not establish comparable coverage or methodology. They cannot be reliably reconciled with Salary Sport’s pound-denominated estimate, so the figures should be kept separate. SalaryLeaks’ Leicester City salary page
Leicester City’s official financial statements report revenue of £105.3 million for 2023/24 in a comparison with 2024/25, but club revenue is not the same as player wages and does not establish an individual-player average. The club’s accounts release for the year ending 30 June 2023 predates the season in question and discusses squad commitment costs generally, rather than individual 2023/24 wages.

How to read a football wage estimate
- Check the population: an all-listed-squad calculation is not equivalent to an average for players aged 22 or over or a first-team-only estimate.
- Check the unit and period: weekly and annual totals, or pounds and euros, are not directly comparable without knowing the underlying scope and method.
- Check who published the figure: public salary tables are estimates, not disclosures of confirmed contract terms. Salary Sport identifies Jamie Vardy as its highest earner at an estimated £80,000 per week; that is the publisher’s estimate, not an official club-confirmed salary.
- Keep seasons distinct from accounting years: a club financial year and the football season do not necessarily cover the same dates or answer the same question.
