some basic errors - one the deal is for 5 years (so till next season) and 2) - there is a guarantee of £3M over and above the £20M so, until Mancs achieved their PL/CL results THIS season we were getting no more than we otherwise would have got
The Rooney deal had a number of contingencies attached to it and if the Mancs win BOTH the league and Champions League we will be £750K better off.
The deal was £23M (£20M and up to £7M worth of contingent extras over a 5 year period (2004-9) with a minimum of £3M regardless of any achievements by the Mancs)
Thus far this has/will break down as follows:
a. Champions League wins £1M, Runners-up £0.5M (£0.5M-£1M - result pending
b. Premier League wins £0.5M, Runners-up £0.25M (£1M-£1.25M) - result pending
c. FA Cup wins £0.15M (nil so far)
d. Contract extension £1.5M (achieved)
e. 20 (competitive) caps for England £0.5M (currently 17) - pending
Assuming that, without injury, he achieves those 3 caps in the next season and Man U win both the PL and CL the total received will reach £24.25M with the potential to earn a further possible £1.65M for a-c above next season.
So, thanks to Ronaldo we are doing better than we might have expected a year or so ago!
All we need now is for a major fall out with Fergie and Real/Inter to cough up £50M for him as we would get 1/3rd of the profit as well.
To summarise
Win PL lose CL £3.25M - extra £250K
Lose PL Win CL £3.5M - extra £500K
Win Both £3.75M - extra £750K
Lose Both £3M - no further payment
