Josh Brownhill - Here we go again!

How much is Josh Brownhill earning at Burnley as Leicester and Wolves linked?

 

Using capology, Football League World look at how much Josh Brownhill earns at Burnley with Wolves and Leicester City interested.

 

Burnley midfielder, Josh Brownhill, is a transfer target for Wolves and Leicester City this January window.

 

Brownhill’s career has been mainly spent in the EFL. He left Man United’s academy in 2012, joining Preston, where he would play 64 games.

 

After moving to Bristol City and playing 161 games for the club, he joined Burnley in 2020. He’s now a pivotal part of Vincent Kompany’s side, captaining the Clarets in the Premier League this season.

 

Despite being a crucial part of the Burnley set up, he might find himself with a new club come the end of January.

 

Over the weekend, news broke that Wolvesand Leicester City are interested in signing the midfielder.

 

Brownhill’s Burnley are currently struggling in their return to the Premier League, looking a contender for relegation in early December. 

 

In comparison, Wolves have found some form of late and are well on their way to safety. Leicester are flying in the Championship and look set to return to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

A move to either of these two clubs would be enticing to Brownhill, who will be keen to make sure he’s playing Premier League football next season.

 

The Mirror reported Wolves would part way with £7 million to sign Brownhill, but how much will his wages cost? Using Capology, we’ve looked at the estimated wages of Brownhill at Burnley and how this compares to current Wolves and Leicester City players.

 

Brownhill signed his deal on the 30th January 2020 and his deal is rumoured to be up next summer. This might sway Burnley to sell up to avoid losing him on a free transfer.

 

The 27-year-old is on an estimated £45,000 per week, which is £2,340,000 per year, making him the second-highest earner at the club.

 

If Wolves or Leicester City are to sign Brownhill they should expect to be paying around that amount, if not more, each week.

 

 

If we compare Brownhill’s wage at Burnley (£45,000) to other players at Wolves, he’s some way off the top earners.

 

Capology estimates that Spaniard Pablo Sarabia is Wolves' top earner, earning a reported £90,000 per week. Sarabia earns double that of Brownhill at Burnley, suggesting wages shouldn’t be an issue for Wolves.

 

Brownhill would be earning the same as Craig Dawson and Mario Lemina if he stayed on the same wage. The pair are on an estimated £45,000 per week as well, making up 4.52% of Wolves’ wages.

 

Compared to Leicester City’s wages, Brownhill is even further off the top earner. Long-term striker Jamie Vardy is on an estimated £140,000 per week, which is extremely high for a Championship player.

Leicester have 11 players earning over a reported £50,000 a week. This suggests wages shouldn’t be an issue for the Foxes either if they do try to sign Brownhill.

I think he'd be a good addition for like a 6 month loan or something.

 

Pretty sure he was championship player of the season last year while playing as an 8. Would much rather someone like him come off the bench than Casadei.

Not good enough for Burnley in the prem so he won't be good enough for us, long term. Pass

Eh? He's made 2 sub appearance in the league and played 85+ mins in their other 14 league games. Doesn't suggest he's not good enough for them.

 

On the right deal I think he'd be a tidy addition to the squad. I wouldn't break the bank for him or offer him whatever he wants, but if he'd be willing to come and the deal was right for us then he'd be a solid option in one of the 2 8 positions.
