Edit... The best paid player in the report earned an annual salary of 3.54 million pounds, or 294,666 pounds a month. The figures from the 2019-20 season do not include win bonuses or other payments.

According to several sources online the average Championship salary is currently £29,000 per week. That would equate to £45 million for a typical squad of 30.
There are some published figures for the 2019/20 season, and that figure seems about right. I was going to comment incredible, but madness seems more appropriate.
