JADON SANCHO is set to become Manchester United’s second-highest earner after sealing a £73million move from Borussia Dortmund.
SunSport revealed last month that the England star had already agreed personal terms with the Red Devils, worth £350,000-a-week.

That will see his wages more than trebled from the £100,000-per-week deal he is on at Dortmund.
And it will also see Sancho – who will pen a five-year deal – among the very best-paid players in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s squad.

David De Gea continues to top the list, raking in £375,000 per week – totalling £19.5million a year.
But Sancho would slide in ahead of Paul Pogba, with the Frenchman earning £290,000 per week.
Anthony Martial (£250k), Edinson Cavani (£210k) and Marcus Rashford (£200k) are the others who break the £200,000-a-week barrier.
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.
Sancho meanwhile is likely to be in direct competition with fellow England international Mason Greenwood on the right wing.
United academy graduate Greenwood was rewarded for his continued development with improved £75k-a-week terms back in February.
As of time of publishing, Juan Mata’s £160k terms are off the wage bill but the Spaniard remains in talks over a new deal at Old Trafford.
But United are back paying Jesse Lingard £75,000 following the midfielder’s return from his loan at West Ham.
