The least each player in the squad will get is $30,000 (N13m), that is if they crash out from the group stage.
The windfall comes after world body FIFA Thursday announced its new financial distribution model ahead of the Women’s World Cup, which begins July 20.
FIFA president, Gianni Infantino, said, “Under this unprecedented new distribution model, each individual player at the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 can now fully rely on remuneration for their efforts as they progress through the tournament. The captain that ultimately lifts the iconic FIFA Women’s World Cup Trophy on August 20 in Sydney will receive USD 270,000, as will each of her 22 teammates.”
