#3 Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich) | £259,000 per week
Manuel Neuer is arguably the greatest goalkeeper to have played the game, and he is only getting better with age.
Neuer is often credited with transforming the art of goalkeeping. His sweeper-keeper style of play, comfort on the ball and shot-stopping ability have inspired the next generation of goalkeepers.
The Germany international caught the eye with his sensational performances for his country in their victorious FIFA World Cup 2014 campaign. He is now one of the most decorated goalkeepers of his generation.
After an injury-riddled 2017-18 season, it was assumed that Neuer's time at the highest level was coming to an end. But the 35-year-old bounced back strongly, helping Bayern Munich win the continental treble in 2020. He is the captain of both Bayern Munich and the German national team.
#2 Jan Oblak (Atletico Madrid) | £271,000 per week
Many are of the opinion that although Jan Oblak is the best goalkeeper in the world, he does not get the credit he deserves.
Oblak joined Atletico Madrid from Benfica in 2014 for £14.4 million. After a slow start to his Atletico Madrid career, the Slovenia international has become a mainstay for Diego Simeone's side. A world-class shot-stopper, Oblak has been key for the Rojiblancos over the years.
He has won the La Liga Zamora Trophy five times. The 28-yea= old continues to astound with his incredible reflex saves, while his numbers speak for themselves. Oblak has often been linked with a move away from Atletico Madrid, but the Rojiblancos are unlikely to let him leave.
#1 David de Gea (Manchester United) | £375,000 per week
David de Gea is back to his best after an alarming drop in form over the past two seasons for Manchester United.
For a while, it seemed that De Gea would leave United this summer, and Dean Henderson would take over. However, the Spain international reportedly worked hard this summer to get ready for the new season, and the results have been there for everyone to see.
During his prime, David de Gea was comfortably the best goalkeeper in the game. The 30-year-old has provided several glimpses of his world-class shot-stopping ability this season, making eye-catching saves galore. De Gea's ball distribution has improved as well, and he has arguably been Manchester United's best player this season so far.
