Manchester United are paying the majority of Bebe's wages while he is on loan at Pacos de Ferreira, according to a report.
The 23-year-old striker joined United for £7.4m from Vitoria de Guimaraes in 2010 but has failed to establish himself in the first team.
According to Goal.com, Bebe earns £25,000 a week at Old Trafford and has two years remaining on his contract.
United are reportedly paying £20,000 of those wages and are looking to sell when his season-long loan spell with Pacos ends.
