Players Get Paid to Play For National Teams ?

England started ODI series with victory

Though when it comes to big events like World Cups and Euros almost all the federations promise their players a certain amount if they win the trophy. Back in euro 2012 english FA promised each player 100,000 if they win the cup. Germany offered 250,000 each for winning Euros.

So who makes all the money if they get paid so little?

The vogue answer is YES but the salary to be part of international squad is different from federation to federation. The first thing to be noted here is that Federations pay footballer a certain match fee which depend on how important a game is but one thing is for sure its no way near what top players make with their clubs. Most of the big European Nations players donate their match fees to charities.

Rio Ferdinand was on record saying that english players do get paid match fee for playing in international matches (which according to him is not much). But they donate the money to good causes.

Back in 2012, English FA made a structured match fee formula where they were paying players who were part of the playing XI, 1,500 for a win, 1,000 for a draw and 750 for a defeat. Though England players decided to donate all the money from England match fees to England Footballers Foundation support Cancer Research

No, how much a federations pay their players is totaly their own decision. FIFA has nothing to do with it. FIFA pays money to federations for participating in tournaments orgnized by FIFA.

The other day I was writing this article on players club wages being too high, so a certain question came to my mind do footballers get paid to play for National side of course they do. But how much they get paid ? so I went ahead and researched the question and its a very interesting reading.

Sounds like FIFA is pocketing too much of the money.
