NICE BONUS: Monaco to cash a good premium after Mbappé PSG renewal
The monegasque club is set to get the remainder of the transfer fee following Mbappé's decision to stay at PSG
While the public is often just focused on the transfer fees and sometimes the wages, truth is a footballers contract has a myriad of clauses and bonues established which could fire at any time should the conditions be met.
