Berlin, The Gulf Observer: Germany players will each receive 400,000 euros ($390,000) if they lift the World Cup in Qatar later this year.
The bonus for the title win is up from 350,000 euros for the previous tournament in 2018, when Germany crashed out in the first round.
When Germany won the title at the Brazil World Cup in 2014, the players received bonuses of 300,000 euros each.

The tournament starts on Nov. 20 and Germany open their campaign against Japan on Nov. 23.A semi-final spot is worth 150,000 euros each, while winning third-place would earn Germany’s players 200,000 euros each.
Losing in the final would be rewarded with a 250,000 euro-bonus.
