Twice as high as with the latest European championship: the German footballers would collect a record bonus in the event of an EM title. But there can be no question of “Equal Pay”.
In a final triumph in Switzerland, each player receives 120,000 euros, as the German Football Association (DFB) announced. For the tournament three years earlier in England, when the team only missed the coup in the final, only half of the sum that has now been agreed had been negotiated.
From the quarter -finals the players received “Performance -related premiums”, as the team council and association agreed. Each player would get up to 45,000 euros to move into the round of the best eight teams. There would be 65,000 euros for the semi -finals and 90,000 euros for the final participation.
So there can be no question of “Equal Pay”: the German men had received 400,000 euros for a triumph at home for the home in the past year, 150,000 for the semi-finals. The team of national coach Julian Nagelsmann was eliminated in the quarter -finals against Spain.
Neuendorf: needs “more Performance incentives in women’s football “
It needs “More power incentives in women’s football”said DFB President Bernd Neuendorf according to the announcement: “The victory premium doubled compared to the past European Championship is therefore an important sign.”
Captain Giulia Gwinn said: “For us as a national team, the sporting success is top priority. That is why it quickly became clear to us that we agree on a performance -related premium regulation.” Together with the association you have “Found a good solution”.
The German team starts the European Championship preliminary round in St. Gallen on July 4 in St. Gallen, and continues on July 8 in Basel against Denmark. The third group game of the eleven of national coach Christian Wück will take place on July 12th in Zurich against Sweden.
