It has also been suggested that a further €4.5m (£3.9m) could be added to the total transfer package to eventually take the overall fee up to €85m (£74m). The add-ons are said to relate to appearances, goals, and possible Champions League qualification – which United are set to secure. The report even goes on to claim that United agreed to take part in a friendly match with Leipzig to be played within a few years. It would supposedly see the Bundesliga club receive all of the revenue from that game too. FOLLOW OUR MAN UNITED FB PAGE!
