This season it was Thierry Henry with 27 goals. However the all-time top-scorer is Alan Shearer with 260 goals.\n195 of which were scored with his right foot, 19 were scored with his left foot and he put 46 of them into the back of the net with his head.

At the moment the world record for a football transfer is £47 million, which was paid by Real Madrid to Juventus in 2001 for Zidan who will be at the World Cup after coming out of internation retirement.

I read somewhere that it was Man Utd, but that may have been the richest club, rather than the biggest one.\n\nBut it might be them anyway!\n\nSure as heck isnt Tranmere Rovers, and thats a fact!

My guess is Michael Vick, who last season signed a 10-year $130 million dollar contract with the Falcons. (Compare that to 1986 when Dan Marino became the highest paid NFLer - at the time - with a 6-year $9 million contract!) Highest $$ per year though may be different.

Wayne Rooney and Frank Lampard are probably the best england football players. For me Rooney is the #1 soley b/c of his age. Ever since Euro 2004 he has exceled in English football being transferred from Everton to Manchester United, one of the best football clubs in the world for a huge fee of about  £23 million. That is a huge fee for a teenager. To me Wayne Rooney is the next Pele, he gets better every year and very soon he will be scoring tons of goals in the 2006 world cup in Germany.

It's hard information to find out as clubs don't wish to disclose the individual player wages. In 2005 player wages at Chelsea totalled over £115m which was £30m over that of second highest payers Manchester United. Considering the players that Chelsea have bought since then it is highly likely this has risen even higher and will continue to do so with the likes of Michael Ballack to sign shortly on a ridiculous amount of money.\n\nAs for the highest earner it is almost certainly Frank Lampard who is rumoured to be on over £100,000 a week though Chelsea have called a press conference for Monday where they are expected to unveil Michael Ballack. Ballack is apparently set to become the highest paid player at the club. \n\nThe lowest paid player will be the younger players in the squad.
