Weekly wages: Man Utd’s highest-paid earners

This drop is largely due to a series of high-profile departures. Alejandro Garnacho and Antony were sold, Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho went out on loan, while Victor Lindelof and Christian Eriksen were let go following the expiration of their contracts.

With those changes in mind, the current squad has been ranked from top earner to lowest-paid player for the season, based on data compiled by Capology.

Just a heads-up: these numbers are estimates. Only the club and the players themselves know the exact figures, so treat this as a well-informed guide rather than gospel.

Here’s a detailed look at the Top 10 Man United earners

10. Noussair Mazraoui – £135,000/week
Joining United in 2024 from Bayern Munich, Mazraoui arrived following Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s departure to West Ham.

The Moroccan full-back signed a four-year contract and is expected to become a key figure in the squad moving forward.

9. Bryan Mbeumo – £150,000/week
United secured Mbeumo’s signature after identifying him as a priority target.

The former Brentford winger came with a hefty price tag exceeding £70 million (including add-ons) and committed to a five-year stay at Old Trafford.

8. Luke Shaw – £150,000/week
A decade into his United career, Shaw is approaching 300 appearances.

Despite recurring injuries, the England international remains a vital part of the team and is contracted until 2027.

7. Mason Mount – £150,000/week
Mount made the switch from Chelsea in 2023 for £60 million, even though his contract there was nearing its end.

His debut season was plagued by injuries, raising questions about the timing of the transfer.

6. Benjamin Sesko – £160,000/week
Sesko chose United over Newcastle, arriving from RB Leipzig for an initial £66 million.

The towering striker signed a five-year deal and is expected to earn over £40 million during his tenure.

5. Matheus Cunha – £180,000/week
Cunha inherited the iconic number 10 shirt from Marcus Rashford after transferring from Wolves.

As Ruben Amorim’s first signing, he agreed to a five-year contract worth upwards of £9 million annually.

4. Harry Maguire – £190,000/week
Despite frequent speculation about his future, Maguire remains one of United’s top earners.

His current deal runs until 2026, and it remains to be seen whether the club will extend his stay.

3. Matthijs de Ligt – £195,000/week
Now the third highest-paid player at the club, De Ligt joined from Juventus in 2024.

Having previously worked with Erik ten Hag at Ajax, the Dutch defender signed a five-year deal that keeps him at Old Trafford until 2029.

2. Bruno Fernandes – £300,000/week
Appointed captain in 2023, Fernandes has consistently delivered for United.

He rejected a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia in 2025 and remains under contract until 2027.

1. Casemiro – £350,000/week
Casemiro tops the wage chart at United, earning £350,000 weekly since his 2022 move from Real Madrid.

Though he cost £50 million, his performances have drawn mixed reviews recently, and rumors of a potential exit resurfaced this past summer.
