The Major League Soccer Players Union released salary information for the second time this season Thursday. (View the first set for Minnesota United's players through April 15 here.)

This data, as of Sept. 15, has all the new additions to the team: winger Sam Nicholson with guaranteed compensation at $281,456, defender Michael Boxall at $242,333.33, winger Ethan Finlay at $290,000, winger Jose Leiton at $68,504, forward Brandon Allen at $65,625 and goalkeeper Alex Kapp at $53,004.

Vadim Demidov still remains the highest-paid Loon, making more than 550K, but he hasn't been with the team for months as the club looks to offload him.

The Washington Post has a good roundup here of all the summer signings' salaries.
