6) Romelu Lukaku – £325,000 a week
Chelsea were prepared to pay top dollar to bring the former United forward back to the Premier League, and they haven’t cheaped out on his salary either.
5) Raphael Varane – £340,000 a week
The France international may have been brought in for a rather modest sum as he had under a year left on his contract at Real Madrid, but United have had to offer him a sizeable salary in order to bring him to Old Trafford.
