Manchester United caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is on a massive top four bonus.

The Daily Express says United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is desperate for the club to secure a top-four finish.

Missing out on the Champions League would cost them more than £40m in lost revenue, prize money and sponsorship clauses.

Woodward also knows United have to be competing in club football's biggest competition to stand a realistic chance of landing their summer transfer targets.

United last failed to secure Champions League qualification in 2016 - and it resulted in Louis Van Gaal being sacked. It also hit United hard in the pocket, so Woodward has decided to offer Solskjaer a huge financial incentive to achieve the aim.

The potential bonus means Solskjaer could collect £2m on top of his wages for just six months' work at Old Trafford. It would also improve his chances of landing the job on a permanent basis.
