Zlatan Ibrahimovic in-line for huge Manchester United bonus after breaking 20-goal mark this season

ZLATAN Ibrahimovic is in-line for a huge Manchester United bonus after breaking the 20 goal barrier this season.
The 35-year-old striker has been in incredible form since joining United for free from PSG in the summer.
The Swede had a number of add-ons inserted into his £300,000-a-week deal, including becoming the Premier League Golden Boot winner.
And after notching a hat-trick against St Etienne and netting at Blackburn, he is set for a hefty cash windfall.
An Old Trafford insider revealed: “After breaking 20 goals, Zlatan is poised to get a rather nice lump of cash.
“He had loads of add-ons in his contract like he had at PSG in terms of targets for goals and appearances.
“He is also in the money if he finishes top scorer in the league and if he's top of the goal charts at the club.
“Ibra has been nothing short of a revelation since coming in and it's no surprise to anyone here he has done so well.”
More on Manchester United
It is not known how much Ibrahimovic has landed for reaching the goal mark, but it is expected to be in six-figures.
United offered Monaco star Radamel Falcao similar incentives when he joined them on loan in 2015.
Ex-Barcelona and Juventus ace Ibrahimovic has scored a stunning 24 times in 37 appearances already this campaign.
He has triggered a new one-year deal inserted into his contract, but is undecided whether he will stay at the club.
