Those are insane numbers! If true, Man Utd's wage structure is taking a serious hit.
That's rubbish. He will obviously earn substantially more at Man Utd.
Jadon Sancho | £72.9M fee agreed

Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

You can get delirious if you take life too serious, it's Sancho time.
Sancho is supposed to be on a pretty healthy contract at Dortmund as it stands, around €200k a week IIRC. I expect United will bump his base wage up to around £250k and he will do well with performance based addons but that’s only half the financial draw of United. His profile will explode and he will be in a great position to exploit that and sign personal sponsorship deals.
He
He is literally one of the best players in the world. His wages were never going to be anything less than 300k.
Always amazed and shocked at the same time by looking at these figures and insanely high wages. While the ordinary UK citizen earns on average about £31,500 a year, these guys bargain for £250-300k "a week". Nevertheless, Sancho is a great player and I'm pretty sure it's a done deal. I guess ManUtd will raise the offer to £80m which Dortmund then will agree to.
Happy Zipper Day . Enjoy the Unzipping fellow muppets for the Train has arrived and we are only one stop away . Chugga chugga chugga San- Chooooo Choooo
If there is a problem, and a high demand for a solution you can offer, you will always be paid well...no matter what industry.
Happy Sancho Day everyone!
The Kardashians have made shedloads of money by simply wearing clothes and taking loads of selfies. At least professional footballers are providing entertainment to millions of people by showcasing their actual skills.
It's perplexing.

To be fair, that IS the Kardashians showcasing their actual skills as well
Tonight btw
With a tweet saying "you love to see it"
No flight tracking
SHIT
SHIT
Backing Cavani to get 30 goals at least with this guy incoming, not even counting his own goal contribution. Most important signing since Rooney for me.
If we can add Varane in this window too, arguably would help him flourish even more due to the domino effect up the pitch of a solid defence.

Can't believe Gareth has ignored him so far in the Euros, he's deadly.
Fully ready for German media to say its not as close as we think or that there have been no formal talks yet after all. This saga has taught me to expect nothing and be ready for anything
Gareth Southgate says hi!
United's been trying to rationalise its squad the past couple of years -- from the age profiles to the type of players it wants going forward, better integration of the academy players... and all within a structured and sustainable wage structure. So there is no way they will upset the current players by giving him, a 21y.o up & coming star a wage that would destroy all the previous couple of year's work.
I hope they fecking don't. We fans can laugh about it and take the piss, but with Haaland and Bellingham, I'd say it's best the club treat them with respect.
Dortmund's social media team are utter numpties, it'll serve no purpose other than to piss off Dortmund, for ours to act just as daft.
To be fair, that IS the Kardashians showcasing their actual skills as well
Touché.I'd rather we didn't start pissing about on social media, to be honest. Dortmund's is clearly run by a bunch of sour fanny's with cringey banter.
We will get Sancho and Dortmund gets Malen. Malen will go on to become the next 100M+ player.
Who the feck is this guy chiming in now like some kind of oracle talking bollox about wisdom.
Why did he feel the need to post such garbage
This is how I've always explained it, even if it is quite a reductive explanation - United’s revenue is ~600 million, their wage bill is ~ 300 million. Footballers are essentially the only thing that brings the club value, without footballers you wouldn’t have fans and sponsorship. So footballers are asking for a proportional wage comparative to the teary revenue. They also have a much shorter career than most others. 18-35 on average. So they also need to ensure they are fully set for the future. There also needs to be a hierarchy in terms of wages. The majority of footballers aren’t on 200k theyre on like 5-30k, but they’re league 2 - championship level players. If someone at Newport is earning 10k a week then someone who plays in the champions league who plays at a top 6 club is surely worth 10/20 times that in terms of quality and revenue generated?
Some of the posts in here are baffling. This is a marquee signing coming for one of the highest fees ever paid by a PL club yet people expect him to not be amongst our top earners out the gate?
So what shirt number will he get?
Not sure what he’s playing at. Nobody gives a feck about his opinion only his reporting.
69
I'm sure its been mentioned by others but anything over £60m for Sancho in this market with 2 years left on his contract when none of the other clubs with money are in for him is ridiculous.
This is always, without fail, the weirdest thing people moan about on this site. No one is in for him because he wants to come here. There were rumours about PSG a couple of months ago, Chelsea and Liverpool too. They all dried out because we want him and he wants us.
I’d agree if it were 1 year. 2 years really is a lot different.
Don’t think it matters what other clubs are in for him. That’s what Dortmund value him at.
6+1=7, so 16, or 25, add up to 7. Give him 7 in a year when Cavani is gone.
I remember strikers used to do that, if 9 was taken you’d see 18 or 27.
7 with Eddie switching to 9 with any luck
It's actually the complete opposite.
Clearly for the price, other teams were interested. Don't understand why fans can't just be glad that we're still able to sign players of such calibre. The market is whatever the buyer and seller agree the price will be.
You don't know who Henry Winter is?
That was awful, even for you
Must've been years since we signed a talent in the at the level of Sancho, Pogba was probably the last player of that ilk we signed. Will be nice to see one of these mega talented young players, in the Mbappe-Haaland-de Ligt-Felix bracket, joining us for a change.
You love to see it?
