CA growth is since the first day of pre-season training - after the summer declines - or since the player joined the first team squad (e.g. transfer deadline day).

Wages in brackets indicate that other clubs are picking up that particular tab.

Colin (2K), Sticky (2K), Peter (1K), and Magnus (750) are paid separately for their coaching work. Cheb is paid much more than what's listed here, but by Bayern Munich.
