Each player in the Dream Team will receive the Naira equivalent of $4,000 if Nigeria defeats Algeria in Saturday’s U-23 African Nations Cup final in Dakar, Senegal.
However, the players will not get a dime if they lose to the Algerians, africanFootball.com reports.
“It’s winner-takes-it-all. So we have to give everything to be champions tonight,” an official told africanFootball.com.
The players were paid the Naira equivalent of $3,000-a-man for the semi-final win over hosts Senegal, $2,000-a-man for the opening-day win over Mali, and $1,000 for the draws with Egypt and Algeria.
They were also paid $100 per day for the 10 days they trained in The Gambia prior to the championship.
Altogether, each player has so far received the Naira equivalent of $8,000.
