Now out of the round of the next Champions League after the 4-0 collected yesterday at Brighton, Manchester United are looking forward to days of lean cows. This is what the Daily Mail writes, anticipating heavy cuts for next season in the salaries of players, up to a quarter, to cope with lower income. Consequence of a disappointing championship, which will lead Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates – sixth with two rounds from the end – to play the Europa League at best, if not the Conference. And of the way in which United structures the contracts of its players, in which it is foreseen the curtailment of up to a quarter of the salary in case of lack of access to the Champions League, a measure designed to protect the club from the decline in cash prizes and television rights .
So, calculates the Daily Mail as an example, CR7 will face a cut in its weekly salary from 385,000 pounds (around 450,000 euros) to around 288,000 (336,370 euros), provided it intends to stay at Old Trafford again next season. The club’s second highest-paid player, goalkeeper David de Gea, will see his weekly salary reduced from £ 375,000 (€ 437,981) to around £ 281,000 (€ 328,194).
