CJ Egan-Riley is now listed as a Marseille centre-back, and the available figures do not establish what Burnley paid him during the 2024–25 Championship season. Capology estimates his Marseille gross fixed salary at €35,000 per week for 2026–27, excluding bonuses, but that estimate cannot be used to rank his Burnley pay against the Championship’s best defenders.
What is CJ Egan-Riley’s current salary estimate?
Capology lists Egan-Riley at Marseille and estimates his 2026–27 gross fixed salary at €35,000 per week, or €1,820,000 per year. The estimate excludes bonuses. Capology cautions that its salary figures are estimates and are not official disclosures: Egan-Riley’s Capology salary profile.
This is a Marseille figure for 2026–27, not a Burnley wage and not evidence of what he earned in an earlier season.
How much did CJ Egan-Riley earn at Burnley?
The available evidence does not verify Egan-Riley’s 2024–25 Burnley salary. A separate Capology figure reproduced through FBref lists £6,000 per week, or £312,000 per year, for 2023–24, but marks it “Unverified estimation.” It is an older-season estimate, not a confirmed wage for his 2024–25 Burnley campaign: FBref’s Egan-Riley profile.

Because the figure is both unverified and from a different season, it should not be treated as a reliable baseline for calculating a pay rise, pay cut or Burnley-season total.
Can his Burnley wages be compared with the Championship’s best defenders?
Not on the evidence available. A meaningful comparison would need to identify a specific Championship season, define “best” using a consistent performance measure or an established selection, and collect comparable wage estimates for those same defenders in that season. The available Championship wage information does not provide a complete, matched set that meets those conditions: Capology’s Championship salary page.

Without that set, there is no sound basis for a ranking, a salary ratio, or a claim that Egan-Riley was underpaid or overpaid relative to top Championship defenders. Salary estimates may also omit bonuses or other compensation, so even a well-matched comparison would need to state what each figure covers.

Burnley’s official accounts report turnover of £71.7 million for the year ended 31 July 2025, down from £133.6 million. The club attributed the decrease to Championship participation and lower broadcasting distributions. Those are club-wide turnover figures; they do not show Egan-Riley’s salary or establish what any individual player earned: Burnley FC’s club accounts.
