Alexis Sanchez transfer from Arsenal to Manchester United is close to being done and dusted, with the Gunners expected to acquire Heinrikh Mkhitaryan on the deal that involves swap. Sanchez transfer is expected to be completed by the sunset of Monday. While the Chilean’s move to Red Devils has been stealing the headline, little attention has been channeled to that humongous amount he will pocket every week and perhaps what that will mean for the Manchester club.

According to a British publication, the Evening Standard, the 29 year old will pocket salary in the region of £350,000 to £400,000. This is a figure that is above what the highest paid player in the Man United camp earns as of now.
