Manchester United have paid Alexis Sanchez £16,000 per minute in the Premier League this season

Alexis Sanchez has 'earned' nearly £16,000 per minute of Premier League action this season for Manchester United, according to the Sportsman.

The publication has compiled data from the start of the Premier League season (August 10) until February 11 to document how much each player at the Red Devils has earned in the 2018-19 campaign.

To calculate the figures, as reported by the Sun, the Sportsman deducted wages from players for the weeks they have been out injured, then divided their collective earnings during the course of the campaign and divided it by the minutes played in the league.
