Meanwhile, The Mirror report that the Chilean international could be set to complete a £30m move to Old Trafford, while he would earn a staggering £400,000-a-week.

This apparently actually happening, possibly by the end of the day. Sanchez's agent supposedly gave City a final chance to match the offer and Txiki told him to frick off. Don't blame the guy for doing what's best for his client.

That £400K a week salary is what has been thrown around constantly, even with City, but that is going to be a pre-tax number.

That salary is insane for Sanchez... Whats his signing bonus?

We honestly probably won't know the exact numbers for some time.

But United obviously are offering better terms than City's offer of £13 mil salary (250K per week) and a £15 mil signing bonus if he came this month.

And that isn't even counting the transfer fee, which you'd assume will be Arsenal's asking price of £35 mil, or less than that and Henrikh.

It honestly still isn't a horrible deal. If they pay the rumored £35 mil fee, his £23 mil salary and lets say a £15 mil signing bonus that's still only £70 mil total for a pretty damn good player. Which would almost be unheard of in this current market. There will of course be an agents fee as well.

Curious how it goes down. They may be offering a massive signing on fee and lower wages, I'd think they wouldn't want to piss Pogba off, but they may be about to offer him a new deal anyways. I think he's only on like £150K a week wages.

£400K/week pre-tax is only around like £230K a week after taxes hit.

It really isn’t a huge number. Rooney was on £300K/week last year. Zlatan I think SCH said was on like £350K

I thought those were all pretax numbers though

how would he take being rotated? Maybe I’m putting too much into the attitude I’ve seen of late at Arsenal..

Apparently he wouldn't talk to Wenger for a few days after being subbed out of games. No telling how he will act if he doesn't get to start every game.

Are you talking like Rooney and Zlatan’s wages? If so, I have no idea.

Your UCL tie just got easier..

Akanji signs with BvB

Yeah 400 is a shocking number. But like you said, you are getting him at a discount no matter how you look at it. He is going to likely be the highest paid player there.

And there is nothing wrong with that, we would do the same if he was coming to City.

Media in Chile is reporting its a €28 mil transfer fee for Sanchez with wages of £350K/week. Mkhitaryan is also included in the deal, but apparently he doesn’t want the move

Sky sports just reported that during the United match
