Players in the Italian league earn chicken change compared to those in the EPL

As the saying goes : " all that glitters is not gold." Ordinarily one would just dwell on the assumption that all footballers are paid king's ransom in Europe,but in the Italian Serie A it is not totally so.

While players in England could be pocketing astronomical figures in weekly wages,the latest figures released in Italy,has shown the gulf in difference between the two leagues.

AS Roma's Daniele De Rossi is touted as the highest earner in the league,and that is at £100,000. This is lesser than what Ashley Young earns at Manchester United.

The surprising one was the figure released for former Manchester United player,Paul Pogba now at Juventus. The French international is said to be earning £23,000 every week,something that really belies his much hyped talent.

Below written in italics is the report by Daily Mail on the salary cap of players in the Italian Serie A.

As the annual salaries of every Serie A player were released on Monday, there seems to be little doubt that the Italian league is falling behind Europe's top leagues.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Serie A clubs are now spending close to a combined £500million less on wages compared with 2011 as even the league's highest earners collect far less than Premier League and La Liga stars.
