A club's weekly bill is the wages we hold for its squad, so WAGES HELD is what that figure and the share beside it are taken over.

Clubs with no wage on record

19 clubs here have no player we hold a wage for, so they have no top earner to rank. Squads, and any wage we do add, show on the club pages.
