Inside the multi-million pound mansions fit for footballers moving to Manchester and Cheshire this summer

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

With Manchester home to two of the most renowned football teams in the world, it is no surprise that some of the wealthiest footballer players choose to reside in our region.

Over the years, many affluent areas in the boroughs of Trafford, Stockport and Salford have been home to some pretty big Premiere League footballers including Marcus Rashford, Harry Maguire and Phil Foden.

The 'Golden Triangle' in Cheshire, which is also dubbed the 'footballer belt', has also been known to attract some top players in recent years, who've lived in the likes of Wilmslow, Alderley Edge and Prestbury.

With the summer transfer window well underway, players transferring to Manchester United or Manchester City may now be looking to snap up a mansion ahead of the new season - and there are plenty of plush homes to go around.
