Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is in line for a bumper bonus should they finish in the top four.

The Sun says Solskjaer could have an extra incentive to secure Champions League football for the club, as he's reportedly been promised a bonus worth more than £1million if he pulls it off.

United officials will hand him a six-figure sum should he steer the team to Europe's elite.

Solskjaer, who is said to earn less than half of the £15million a year Jose Mourinho was raking in at the club, has a number of bonuses in his United deal. One of those will reward him for returning the club to the Champions League after they finished sixth last season, the report adds.

The ex-Cardiff boss took over the reigns from Mourinho in December 2018 and managed to have a buoyant effect - winning his first six games in charge.
