It is now a tradition: the national teams, participating in a major competition, receive bonuses according to the course taken in the said competition. According to information from Parisian, the Blues, present in Qatar, will receive about 420,000 dollars, or nearly 400,000 euros in the event of a final victory on Sunday. This is about 50,000 euros more than in Russia. If the course were to stop against Morocco, this sum would drop between 238 and 257,000 euros, determined according to the result in the small final for 3rd place on Saturday.
This envelope, divided into 30 equal parts with four members of staff, will also offer a nest egg to Karim Benzema and Lucas Hernandez who have not been replaced and are still officially part of the 26 Tricolores present at the World Cup. They will therefore be entitled to this bonus in the event of French success. Nevertheless, most of the money received will go to associations but also to French amateur clubs which are still struggling to recover since the Covid-19 pandemic. Note that the FFF has already received 1.5 million dollars (1.4 million euros) for the preparation of the World Cup.
