Anthony Martial scores a goal worth £8.4m for Manchester United against Burnley
Manchester United must pay AS Monaco a further £8.4m after Anthony Martial‘s goal in Sunday’s 2-0 win over Burnley, according to a report.
The French forward, who joined the Red Devils from Monaco in 2015 for an initial fee of £36m, scored his 25th goal for the club against the Clarets.
According to Sky Sports News, who cite a reportedly leaked document, Martial’s goal at Turf Moor triggers a clause which requires United to pay the additional installment.
United will also reportedly be required to pay further installments of £8.4m (€10m) if Martial reaches 25 caps for France – he currently has 15 – or if the 21-year-old is ever nominated for the Ballon d’Or award.
It is also said that there is a sell-on clause inserted into the deal, with Monaco due to be paid 50 percent of any transfer fee between £50m (€60m) and £84 (€100m) United receive for the player.
