Dundee United admit that manager Jackie McNamara receives a bonus when players are sold to other clubs.

Dundee United have revealed that manager Jackie McNamara receives a cut of the transfer income when young players are sold.

A joint statement from the ArabTrust and Federation of Dundee United Supporters Clubs claimed that more than £500k has been paid to third parties following the sales of players this season.

Andrew Robertson, Ryan Gauld, Gary Mackay-Steven and Stuart Armstrong have all been sold to bigger clubs this term, bringing in more than £6m in transfer fees.

"The manager has now specifically waived his right to confidentiality and requested we clarify publicly that certain bonuses are payable in respect of player transfers but that he plays no part in any transfer negotiations," a club statement said.

"This remains the responsibility of the chairman and the board. All bonuses are capped and properly monitored.

"It is important to note that the manager has not received bonuses anywhere near the highly misleading figure of £500,000 stated publicly this week."

McNamara has managed United since 2013 and led them to the 2014 Scottish Cup final and the 2015 Scottish League Cup final.
