Arjen Robben has a special arrangement in his contract with FC Groningen. The 36-year-old attacker, who wants to continue his career a year after his retirement from Bayern Munich, will not receive a salary if he is injured.

"Arjen has a fixed salary and when he is injured, we do not have to pay him," says technical director Mark-Jan Fledderus about the routine, who had a lot of injuries in the past. For example, in his last season with Bayern, he only played twelve Bundesliga games.

There is another exception in Robben's one-year contract. "Arjen can pull the plug himself if he doesn't feel well or if something happens," explains Fledderus.
