Newcomer Patrick Dorgu receives a "low" salary, even lower than the number 3 goalkeeper.
The salary of left-back Patrick Dorgu at Man United has just been revealed, surprising many people.
Accordingly, this 20-year-old star, worth 25 million pounds, receives a salary even lower than the team's number 3 goalkeeper Tom Heaton.
Dorgu was unveiled at Old Trafford before United's defeat to Crystal Palace. Despite high expectations, Dorgu arrived at United as one of the lowest-paid players in the first team, signing a five-and-a-half-year contract worth £40,000 a week. This is a significant increase on his previous salary, but in a star-studded United squad, it is still very modest compared to his peers. Only Altay Bayindir and Kobbie Mainoo earn less than Dorgu. Bayindir, who is a reserve goalkeeper, and Mainoo, who is in contract negotiations, earn £30,000 and £10,000 respectively.
Meanwhile, third-choice goalkeeper Tom Heaton is said to be on £45,000 a week. Alejandro Garnacho is on £50,000 a week, still significantly lower than Jonny Evans (£65,000 a week). More notably, however, United have freed up a significant wage bill by loaning out Marcus Rashford and Antony, with Aston Villa paying the majority (at least 75%) of Rashford's salary (£325,000 a week), while Real Betis pay 84% of Antony's salary (£200,000 a week).
