10) Marco Di Vaio  £1.59m (£30,000 per week)
The 38-year-old Montreal impact striker is somewhat of a footballing journeyman, having played for 11 clubs since his debut in 1993 for Lazio!
9) Jermaine Jones  £1.99m (£38,000 per week)Â
The American battler excelled during the World Cup, and plays for New England Revolution in the MLS.
8) Tim Cahill  £2.22m (£42,000 per week)
Veteran Aussie playmaker now stars for New York Red Bulls.
7) Thierry Henry  £2.67m (£51,000 per week)
Strangely, the former Arsenal man is only seventh on this list! Henry’s been at the New York Red Bulls since 2010.
6) Robbie Keane  £2.76m (£53,000 per week)
The ex-Tottenham man is paid more than Henry is! Keane is still scoring goals for LA Galaxy.

The MLS’s favourite son, Donovan is his country’s record cap holder and goalscorer.
4) Jermain Defoe  £3.8m (£73,000 per week)
Defoe could probably do a job in the Premier League, so is financially rewarded by Toronto as a result.

Another star of the World Cup for the USA, Bradley skippers Toronto.
2) Clint Dempsey  £4.1m (£78,000 per week)
