Manchester United Players Set for Massive Wage Cut After Failing to Secure Top Four Finish

A host of Manchester United players will have their pay reduced by 25% next campaign after finishing outside of the Premier League top four this year.

The Red Devils were dire during their 1-1 draw at already-relegated Huddersfield Town on Sunday, a result that confirmed they would not be playing Champions League football next term.

As reported in the Football Leaks revelations, the majority of contracts at United contain a clause that sees squad members lose a quarter of their earnings in that eventuality, with a number of star names set to pay the price for their end-of-season slump.
