Alexis salary hurting Man Utd summer market plans

Manchester United's January deal for Alexis Sanchez has hit their summer market plans.

The Sun says the Chilean is believed to be earning around £505,000 per week at Old Trafford - with his signing on fee included in that.

However the sums have been noted by the players - and their agents - who have been linked with moves to Old Trafford in the close season.

And the indications are their wage demands will go up - even at this early stage of negotiations.

Boss Jose Mourinho has already handed Ed Woodward a list of targets he would like to bolster his squad for the 2018/9 campaign.

Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Fred is believed to be a target - while Inter Milan wide man Ivan Perisic remains on the radar.
