Alexis Sanchez is set to earn a handsome £18million a year should his Manchester United move go through this month - but that figure is not the highest the club has ever paid.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic signed a contract worth £367,640 a week last season, which eclipses the £350,000 Sanchez is ready to take home.
The Chilean, however, will comfortably become United's top earner now given Ibrahimovic's new deal, thrashed out while he was recovering from knee ligament damage, is heavily incentivised.
Sanchez's future has dominated this transfer window and Manchester City decided to pull out of the race to sign the Arsenal forward.
