Defeating Arsenal, PSG stars will 'profit hugely' after the Champions League final

PSG players will step into the Champions League final not just for the coveted cup but for an enormous financial reward. The French representatives will take on Arsenal in the decisive clash at 23:00 on May 30 (Vietnam time).

According to L'Équipe, if PSG win the championship, each player will receive a bonus of around 1 million euros. A similar bonus structure was applied last season when the Parisian club beat Inter 5-0 in the final to lift the Champions League trophy.

It is understood that the bonus structure was agreed upon at the start of the season, similar to how many top European clubs operate. Captains such as Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi, Ousmane Dembele, and Vitinha were the ones directly involved in negotiations with PSG's management.

At PSG, bonuses are mainly tied to major achievements. In Ligue 1, players only receive significant bonuses if the team wins the title, while in the Champions League, the biggest reward also only comes when PSG lifts the cup. The amounts for reaching the quarter-finals or semi-finals are considered relatively symbolic.

PSG management's stance is clear: the players' top priority should be the title, not money. Therefore, huge bonuses are always conditional on the team winning the championship.

The final against Arsenal is thus not only of historic significance for PSG but also an opportunity for the French club's stars to receive a "massive" bonus. According to European media, the entire PSG squad will enter the match in "maximum mode" both professionally and motivationally.

In summary, if PSG defeat Arsenal to become Champions League winners, each player from the Parisian club will receive around 1 million euros in bonuses. However, PSG still emphasizes that the trophy is the club's top priority.

• Goalkeepers:Lucas Chevalier, Matvei Safonov, Renato Marin.
