Finally some good World Cup news for FC Bayern!
First the cruciate ligament rupture by Lucas Hernández (26), then the frustrating preliminary round of the Munich DFB stars around Thomas Müller (33). And last but not least, the broken shin of Manuel Neuer (36), who has already retired, on a ski tour. No, the World Cup break hasn’t gone to the record champions’ tastes so far…
But now there’s also a World Cup joy for the Bayern bosses!
Because Fifa pays a bonus to the 398 relegated clubs for every player at the World Cup, which increases with every round passed, the Munich team can expect a warm shower of money.
With the final pairing of Argentina once morest France (Sunday, 4 p.m., ARD, Magenta and in the BILD live ticker), one thing is also certain: your 16 World Cup drivers will bring almost 5 million euros into Bayern’s coffers!
The world association pays the equivalent of 9,600 euros per day that a Bayern player spends at the desert tournament. There are further prizes for everyone who has reached the round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals or even the final.
It happened following the game That World Cup moment moved EVERYONE to tears
This puts Bayern in the same category as Manchester City and FC Barcelona. The two top clubs had released 17 (Barcelona) and 16 (City) players for Qatar.
That should have brightened Bayern’s World Cup mood a bit in the last few days of the tournament.
