Manchester United made
almost £10m in sell-on clauses for Danny
Drinkwater and Michael Keane in
the summer. Revealed in a review of the club's first-quarter accounts on
Wednesday, United earned a total of £17.3m from the sale of Adnan Januzaj and two sell-ons in the
previous transfer window.
Those sell-ons, and the £9.3m
of profit, are understood to have come from Keane's £30m move from Burnley to Everton and Drinkwater's £35m transfer from Leicester to Chelsea. The
rest was the £8m transfer fee from Belgian Januzaj's transfer to Real Sociedad in Spain.Stockport-born centre-back Keane joined United as an academy scholar in 2009 at the age of 16. He signed his first professional contract with the club on his 18th birthday on January 11, 2011, before making his first-team debut later that year. Manchester-born Drinkwater joined the academy at the age of nine in 1999 and became a trainee in 2006. He never made a first-team appearance for United and spent time on loan at Huddersfield, Cardiff, Watford and Barnsley before signing for Leicester in 2011.
