The huge amount Mason Mount has been paid per minute of Premier League football at Man Utd

Manchester United midfielder Mason Mount has earned a huge amount of money per Premier League minute played this season.

The England international arrived at Old Trafford from Chelsea last summer for a fee of £55 million, potentially rising to £60 million.

Mount left Chelsea, who he had been associated with since the age of six, to make the move, having entered the final 12 months of his contract at Stamford Bridge.

The 25-year-old was handed the number seven shirt vacated by Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, and made his competitive debut by starting United's opening Premier League match against Wolves.

But after just two appearances, Mount suffered a hamstring injury which would rule him out for five matches.

In November, the midfielder produced an impressive display during United's 1-0 win over Luton - which could have kickstarted his season.

But a muscle injury then kept him out until March, with Mount then scoring his first United goal on his Premier League comeback against Brentford.

More muscle injury issues meant he was in and out of the squad for the remainder of the season, and his campaign ended with a injury-time cameo in the 2-1 FA Cup final victory over Manchester City.

According to The Telegraph, Mount signed a contract worth around £250,000 per week when he made the move to Old Trafford last summer.

Using those figures, Mount would have earned a total of £13 million per year since his arrival at United, meaning that, by the time next season kicks off, the Englishman will have been paid £25,390 per each of his 512 Premier League minutes as a United footballer.

Having missed out on England's Euro 2024 squad, Mount will have an entire pre-season with United to prepare for the upcoming campaign - and will hope to build on some encouraging signs when he was fit towards the end of the campaign to have a much more successful season this time around.
