There's no incentive, it just puts all the risk at the player. Getting injured happens on the job, no player in his right mind and worth his salt would shoulder that risk

If the club hires a manager who doesn’t think you fit in his system, you lose money and playing time? They’ll be queuing to sign that contract.
Pay as you play contracts only work if the player has no literal options.
Mount would have had options, it was up to the risk assessors to decide if he was worth a punt. Clearly they saw something we didn't. Paid ridiculous money and paid a ridiculous contract. The light at the end of the tunnel doesn't seem to coming into view any time soon.

Most players will have bonuses for winning trophies or qualifying for the CL, individual bonuses are not always conducive for a good team though, for example, a player has a bonus for scoring a goal is likely to be temped to try and score rather than pass to someone in a better position, it's a team/squad game so incentives need to be based on the team rather than an individual to have the best effect
A signing that highlights how terrible we are in the transfer market. We needed a midfielder last year and we went for Mount who isn’t a midfielder. Sometimes I feel people calling the shots are clueless at our club. Giving him #7 make it worse 
No all our players have incentivised contracts as they made a big push to bring the ‘base’ salaries down to £200k max after the madness of the Sanchez fallout. This was confirmed with the example of Antony being paid an estimated £70k a week because he wasn’t playing and therefore club was doing very little and therefore was missing every add on possible. All the websites you go to look at wages like sportrac etc. are just scrapers, they take info from all online sources to then show an average but because of how salaries are reported in football I.e. especially with United the media will pile everything in to make as big a headline making number as possible, it ends up being very misleading.
It’s interesting that his injuries forced ETH to abandon his preferred approach and would almost certainly been an important part of Amorim’s ideal lineup as well. Definitely looked better suited to being Amorim’s vision of a 10 than anyone else who tried the role. Plus he would allow Amad to play at wingback.
The injuries obviously make him an awful signing but he probably would have been an important player without them. A real pity all round.
