Manager Mikel Arteta has made an impressive job of rejuvenating Arsenal as they finally look capable of challenging Manchester City and Liverpool at the top of the Premier League.
The 40-year-old Spaniard won the FA Cup twice at Arsenal as a player and succeeded compatriot Unai Emery, who was sacked in November 2019. It's fair to say it wasn't all plain sailing until their new-found form since the summer.
The Gunners finished his first season in eighth, and followed up in the 2020-21 season in the same position, although they did win the FA Cup in his first term in charge. Last season they were fifth, again missing out on the Champions League.
But Arteta and his team went to work in the summer, and a successful recruitment campaign that brought in the likes of Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Fabio Vieira has taken Arsenal to another level.
So where do the new recruits fit in to the Arsenal pay league? You can see all the Gunners players and their weekly salaries for the 2022-23 season, according to capology.com, an online sports team and player contract website, in the photo gallery above.
Who is the highest paid star at Arsenal?
Gabriel Jesus, the £45 million ($50.6m) recruit from Manchester City, takes the honours in 2022-23 with a weekly wage of £265,000, or £13.78m a year, according to capology.com. That puts him way ahead of Thomas Partey and Zinchenko.
The top 10 highest paid Arsenal players in 2022-23
1. Gabriel Jesus, £265,000 a week
2. Thomas Partey, £200,000 a week
3. Oleksandr Zinchenko, £150,000 a week

Some of Darwish's last words
"They see their tomorrows slipping out of their reach. And though it seems to them that everything outside this reality is heaven, yet they do not want to go to that heaven. They stay, because they are afflicted with hope." - Mahmoud Darwish, to attendees of the Palestine Festival of Literature, 2008
His life in brief: Born in a village near Galilee, he lived in exile for most of his life and started writing poetry after high school. He was arrested several times by Israel for what were deemed to be inciteful poems. Most of his work focused on the love and yearning for his homeland, and he was regarded the Palestinian poet of resistance. Over the course of his life, he published more than 30 poetry collections and books of prose, with his work translated into more than 20 languages. Many of his poems were set to music by Arab composers, most significantly Marcel Khalife. Darwish died on August 9, 2008 after undergoing heart surgery in the United States. He was later buried in Ramallah where a shrine was erected in his honour.
