MATA 'AGREED TO A £45,000-A-WEEK PAY CUT' TO GET A TWO-YEAR MAN UTD EXTENSION
Playmaker Juan Mata agreed to have his weekly wages slashed by £45,000 so he could receive a two-year contract extension at Manchester United rather than just one, according to reports.
The Premier League veteran recently entered discussions with the club with his Old Trafford future at the centre of the conversation.
After penning a new deal Mata agreed to a 25 per cent reduction of his wages, from £180,000-a-week to £135,000, according to the Sun.
The 31-year-old is understood to be very happy in Manchester and keen to play a role in reviving the club under Ole Gunnar Solskajer.
Mata's desire for a longer contract is also claimed to be due to his unwillingness to move from the local area in which he has settled.
