Wages include costs of all employees, social security, etc. Other sports teams are included in the figures for some clubs such as Real Madrid’s basketball team.
Many German teams use the calendar year as the financial year so the numbers for Schalke, Frankfurt and Leverkusen are for the 2019 or 2018 year, not 2018/19 season.
Newcastle and Palace haven’t filed their accounts yet and probably won’t do so until July so that’s why they’re missing. Newcastle’s wage bill in 2017/18 was £93.6M, Palace’s £117.3M. I couldn’t find any figures for Zenit and Wolfsburg and there’s probably other teams I’ve missed.
