Cristiano Ronaldo currently sits second with his £850,000 weekly wages at Juventus - ahead of Barcelona new-boy Antoine Griezmann (£725,000).
Neymar, potentially on his way back to Barca, is on £675,000-a-week at Paris Saint-Germain, while another Nou Camp star, Luis Suarez, is fifth on the list (£625,000).
That puts Bale's £600,000 per week sixth on the list with Alexis Sanchez (£505,000) and Philippe Coutinho (£500,000) rounding out the top eight.
Bale 30, had claimed he was only interested in a move to a European club.
But should they baulk at his already sky-high £600,000-a-week wages, Bale may have no option other than to head to China.
