Paul Pogba's salary is set to rise by £36,000-a-week if Manchester United win the Europa League.
Jose Mourinho's side can book their place in next season's Champions League if they win Europe's second tier competition this month, and Pogba stands to benefit more than most.
A new book called Football Leaks: The Dirty Business of Football, released in Germany, has detailed the eye-watering sums paid to Manchester United stars Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Pogba's United contract is thought to be worth a modest £165,588-a-week, although there are substantial incentives for the Frenchman at Old Trafford.
One of those incentives is for reaching the Champions League, which will gurantee Pogba the substantial increase in his basic pay.
The book, seen by the Mail, also reveals Ibrahimovic agreed a deal worth £367,640-a-week at United, comfortably making him the highest-paid player in the Premier League.
In addition, the Swede also secured goal bonuses totalling almost £3million, having notched 28 times in his first season with the club.
Pogba's agent Mino Raiola, meanwhile, will reportedly pocket over £41MILLION from the Frenchman's move to Manchester United.
The midfielder returned to Old Trafford last summer in a world-record £89m deal.
The transfer is set to be investigated by FIFA, according to AFP.
