Premier League soccer team Manchester United pays its players an average £600,000 ($765,000) more per year than local rivals and current champions Manchester City, according to an annual report.
The Global Sports Salaries Survey, conducted by Sporting Intelligence and which looks at how much sports teams pay their players and staff, found Manchester United’s average annual player salary to be £6.53 million, compared to Abu Dhabi-owned Manchester City’s £5.93 million.
“The two Manchester clubs, United and City, remain clear of the rest in basic pay terms, according to our calculations,” Sporting Intelligence said in a statement. “We thought last year that whichever of the pair achieved the most on the pitch would end up with the larger of the two overall wage bills (for all staff) for 2017/18.
“In fact, City won the league and had wages of £260 million and United faltered but paid out £296 million.”
There are still some anomalies within the wage structure of Manchester City, according to Sporting Intelligence, which said that an undisclosed amount of City’s salaries are paid by parent company City Football Group and are then reportedly paid by the club via “external charges.”
