David De Gea topped the list, raking in £375,000 per week – totalling £19.5million a year.
However, it is worth noting their 2022 wage list would see Cristiano Ronaldo leading the way – on a reported £510,000-per-week.
But Sancho did slide in ahead of Paul Pogba, with the Frenchman earning £290,000 per week, before he recently departed to Juventus.
Anthony Martial (£250k), Edinson Cavani (£210k) and Marcus Rashford (£200k) are the others who broke the £200,000-a-week barrier – although Cavani was released last month.
Captain Harry Maguire pockets £190,000 per week while two-time United player-of-the-year Bruno Fernandes gets £180,000.
In fact, 14 first-team players all earn £100,000 or more per week, with the likes of Luke Shaw (£150k) and Fred (120k) next on the list.
Juan Mata’s £160k-per-week wage bill is also now off the books.
While United aren’t paying Jesse Lingard £75,000 following the expiration of his contract.
