The highest paid players at Manchester United - in pictures



Manchester United are enjoying a much-improved season under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as they bid to end a four-year trophy drought in 2020/21.

While neighbours Manchester City have all but sewn up the Premier League title, United are leading the chasing pack and are on course for a return to the Champions League next term via a top-four finish.

They also have designs on winning the Europa League, where they are currently at the quarter-final stage.

A return to Europe's premier competition is the priority for Solskjaer. The Norwegian is improving with every season and looks to have finally assembled a squad to help restore United to frontrunners for major trophies.

Who is the highest paid player at Manchester United in 2020/21?

Goalkeeper David de Gea again tops the charts as the highest earner at Manchester United.

The Spaniard is now in his ninth season at Old Trafford, but has seen his place come under threat from Dean Henderson after his impressive loan spell with Sheffield United.

According to Spotrac, an online sports team and player contract website, the Spaniard still takes home the biggest wage packet at Old Trafford – a whopping £375,000 a week (more than Dh1.8 million).

That amounts to an annual salary of £19.5 million for the United No 1.
