EPL: Man Utd Pay Ronaldo £850,000 After Hat-trick Against Norwich

Manchester United will pay Cristiano Ronaldo a bonus of £850,000 following his hat-trick in their 3-2 win against Norwich.
According to The Sun, Ronaldo triggered a bonus-related clause in his contract after hitting 21 goals for the season.
The deal the 37-year-old signed last year on his return to Old Trafford, includes a £750,000 bonus for reaching 20 goals plus a further £100,000 for his hat-trick strike.
Ronaldo will now receive £100,000 for each further goal he scores for the remainder of this season.
United will also pay their top scorer this season £1million and the Portugal captain seems almost certain to be the beneficiary, as he is 12 goals ahead of his closest challenger Bruno Fernandes.

“Of course Liverpool are low in the table and Man City are dropping points, but there are other teams like Chelsea who can surprise people,” Berbatov told ESPN.
“Six points is a good cushion but in the Premier League it’s nothing and can go very quickly.”
