Supporters were over the moon when Arsenal paid Real Madrid a club-record £42.4million for Ozil in 2013.

After months of negotiations, the Gunners convinced him to sign a new three-and-a-half year deal worth £350,000-a-week in January - making him the club's top earner.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Lucas Torreira, Alexandre Lacazette and Bernd Leno join Ozil in the top five.

Aaron Ramsey, who looks set to leave Arsenal this summer after his contract offer was withdrawn, is eighth.

Club captain Laurent Koscielny is 12th and vice-captain Petr Cech 19th.

Carl Jenkinson, who is yet to feature for Unai Emery following a season on loan at Birmingham, is the least popular behind Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Emilano Martinez.

Gooners have to fork out a staggering £116 for a replica home shirt.

An entire kit - with shorts and socks - costs £157.

As of next season, Arsenal are reuniting with adidas and ending their kit partnership with Puma.

The German sportswear giant is paying a stunning £300million over a reported four years to sponsor the Gunners' strips.

Arsenal wore adidas kits between 1986 and 1994, winning the old First Division title twice during that era under George Graham.

Those retro strips are fashionable again now though, with vintage adidas uniforms selling online for many times their original price.
