Manchester United: Weekly wages and salary of first-team stars revealed

#10 Antonio Valencia, £100,000 per week

Valencia is United's current captain

Initially signed by Alex Ferguson in 2009 as a right winger, Valencia has since transformed himself into a top-notch right-back. The 33-year-old has been permanently awarded the captain's armband following Michael Carrick's retirement. He is one of the players whose contract runs out next summer.

#9 Marouane Fellaini, £100,000 per week

Recently, Marouane Fellaini penned a contract extension that sees him at Manchester United until 2020 despite Arsenal, Besiktas and an unknown Chinese club keeping close tabs on him. The Belgium international, known for his towering presence, also participated in the World Cup in Russia and led his national side to a respectable third-place finish.

#8 Ashley Young, £110,000 per week

The 33-year old Englishman has been an excellent servant for United for the past eight years. When Ashley Young was signed by Sir Alex Ferguson in 2011, he used to play as a winger, but soon morphed himself into a full-back and a pretty good one too. In the match against Brighton, he was deployed as a right-back in place of Matteo Darmian.

#7 Nemanja Matic, £120,000 per week

Nemanja Matic had a stellar debut season at Old Trafford although Manchester United's substandard finish in the 2017/18 season does not license us to extol the virtues of their players. The 30-year-old was unable to start in the first two matches this season in the wake of an injury, but he has reportedly returned to training a few days ago.
