It comes as no shock that Kevin De Bruyne is the highest earner in the league.
The Manchester City midfielder has recorded 7 goals as well as a staggering 14 assists in the Premier League this season.
He's managed to get back to his best after injury ravaged the entirety of last season.
The Belgian's assist record has got many wondering how he'll fare for his national side at the Euros this summer.
International teammate Romelu Lukaku took to Twitter last night following De Bruyne's assist for Gabriel Jesus yesterday.
De Bruyne cheekily responded to the Inter Milan striker saying 'get ready for the summer'.
Who do you think should be the Premier League's highest paid player?
