Manchester United players are unhappy with the club's policy of a 25 per cent wage cut if they fail to qualify for the Champions League, according to reports.

According to The Sun, United are looking to insert a clause in any new contracts offers which would reduce a player's wage by 25% if they miss out on the Champions League.

The report claims that United have agreed a deal in principle with David De Gea over a new six-year contract worth £350,000-a-week.

But that would drop to £262,500 if United miss out on Champions League football and the clause has become an 'issue' in negotiations.

The report also claims that De Gea could keep United waiting until January before his new deal is finalised.
