Manchester United will pay manager Louis van Gaal £5million, if he is sacked before his contract runs out next year.
According to the UK Times, the Dutchman is on an annual salary of £8m, but only £3.3m of that is guaranteed basic pay. The rest is based on performance-related, loyalty and image rights clauses.
United have been heavily linked with former Chelsea boss, Jose Mourinho and if they decide to employ him this summer, the club must pay Van Gaal 66% of his salary.
