Alexis Sanchez contract: Chilean striker earned £6.12m per goal 

Sanchez had joined Man United in January 2018 with Henrikh Mkhitaryan moving to the Emirates. However, his career failed to take off at Old Trafford, with Sanchez often languishing on the bench. Despite managing 45 appearances, he netted just five times for the Red Devils.

Alexis Sanchez’s wage structure in Manchester was also lambasted by supporters of the club. The Chilean forward earned a mammoth £560,000-a-week in wages after his infamous piano-playing reveal. Calculating his wage structure to that of his numbers on the pitch, it turns out that the striker earned £6.12 million for every goal he scored for the Red Devils.

Alexis Sanchez contract: £3.4m per assist for Chilean 

During his one-and-a-half season stint at Man United, Sanchez bagged seven assists. Factoring this number to his contract, it suggests that Sanchez earned £3.4 million per assist. Meanwhile, he earned a massive £680,000 for every game he played in a Man United shirt.

Apart from these figures, it has now been revealed that the striker has received a £9 million payout on his move to Inter Milan, with the Alexis Sanchez net worth already estimated at $38 million ($50 million) according to Celebrity Net Worth. Man United are said to be more than willing to pay the amount citing the fact that he still had two seasons left on his contract which would account for £50 million alone.
