Manchester United's wage bill is now a stunning £121 million.

The Sun says United's wage bill was a massive £121million last year - an increase of £29m.

The 30 per cent rise comes after improved deals for Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo.

United's Premier League and Champions League Double last season saw them splash £13.3m in bonuses, compared to £8.6m the previous year.

Chief executive David Gill is United's best-paid non-playing or non-coaching employee on £1.7m a year.

The champions are still second in the big spenders table with Chelsea's bill at £148m - a rise of 12 per cent.
