Does anyone know of a site where you can find out the contracts of players? Like wage, length of contract and clauses?
For example you can find the wages of NBA players at www.hoopshype.com.
Is there a similar soccer site?

I dont know any site that would show that but if their is it would be predicted. The contracts length gets announced but the wages & clauses are secret unlike American sports where they announce it.

Quite a lot of the wages you may see in the media are estimates, or at least pre-tax.
One said that Robbie Keane was on £60k a week, some of which being paid by Leeds. Can you imagine Spurs paying Keane £40k a week!?
I know for a fact that when Sheringham was last here he was on £40k a week and was the top earner. Darren Anderton was on slightly less.
But you're right, THFC1, most of the details are kept secret unless it's announced how long is left on a contract or they say "the new contract will double his wages of..." like it did with John Terry's recent one. He was on £35k a week.
