    The salary comment is incorrect. In England, salaries are quoted on a gross basis, and on a per week basis. So for Sanchez 130,000 Gbp per week = 6,700,000 Gbp per annum. Converted into Euros, this is ~8.5 million EUR. In England athletes pay around 45% of their salary in tax, meaning that the net or take home is ~4.7 million EUR. In Italy, salaries are quoted on a net basis. Pogba earns 4.5 million EUR. So, it’s not more than double.

    This is the most common mistake I see.
