It's rubbish - how do Daily Mail get hold of such information?

 

It's a load of assumptions made on top of what was published on the last accounts.

We're 9th where it matters....in the Premier League (if the numbers are realistic) and that sits about right given last seasons achievements, we'll need to be showing ourselves as a club who pays well for a while (to attract top class new players) unless we get a miracle in FA Cup or Europe.

Real Madrid being so far behind Man u Isn't computing for me.

 

Bale and Ronaldo both earn complete King's Ransom's alone

How are we ahead of Stoke, Shaqiri must be on about 200k a week to have swapped Milan for Stoke

Rooney is on about half of what Bale is on though isn't he? Zlatan a few whack behind Ronaldo as well,  I guess Man U probably pay their squad players more and there are probably more of them, but there is nearly £500,000 difference there before you even get started. Benzema Modric Kroos Pepe and Ramos all going to be on top whack as well.  Just don't see how they could be so far behind them.

Considering nobody knows what we're paying the players due to the accounts not yet being out... it's nothing more than guess work.

Rooney supposed to be on 230k a week and as zlat was a free I bet he is not far behind. From a search on the web bale and  Ronaldo seem to be on about 280k a week. So not the gap you think and none of us have true figures it's all guesswork.

288k after tax in Ronaldo's care though from what I can see though , given most of that is going to be on 40-50% tax bracket you can double it pretty much meaning he earns more than Zlatan and Rooney combined and then you've got Bales new ridiculous deal (300k allegedly).

 

You are right of course no one knows for sure I just can't see how on earth Man U are that far behind them, must be seriously dealing out some dosh to some severely lackluster football players if that is true.
