Top 5 highest paid Premiership stars as Marcus Smith eyes mega-money Harlequins contract

#2. Maro Itoje (England/Saracens) – £800,000

Farrell’s England and Saracens teammate Maro Itoje has been ranked as the highest-paid English player, but he would have added an extra £200,000 to his salary had Racing 92 ceded to his demands when the Parisian club sought his signature last year. He has played over 130 times for Saracens and has over 50 England caps.
