Milan's wage bill is now the biggest in Serie A with Silvio Berlusconi's club spending an annual €130 million sum - overtaking Inter by €10m.

La Gazzetta dello Sport
conducted a detailed study of Italy's biggest spenders, with Milan taking the lead when it comes to drilling deep into figures.

The arrivals of Robinho and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have seen the wage bill rocket and Jose Mourinho's Inter departure has helped the financial scales tip in Milan's favour.

Inter's decision not to sign high-profile players during the summer window has also influenced the spending tables.

Juventus have the third highest wage expenditure with €100m despite the departure of several high earners including David Trezeguet and Diego.

However, Gazzetta claims the real scale of wages could differ to what the clubs have declared in relation to bonuses, wage structures and other player clauses.
