Super Eagles to earn N15m each for Nations Cup title


Each Super Eagles star could earn as much as $100,000 should they win the AFCON in South Africa.

“Incentives will not be the Super Eagles problem at the Nations Cup,” a top official simply informed MTNFootball.com at the weekend.

“If they go all the way and win the competition, they will each take away about $95,000 and when you add that to their daily allowances of around $5,000, you will have about $100,000.
“And the chief coach (Stephen Keshi) will get double this amount.”

In the proposed budget for next year’s Africa Cup of Nations, each Super Eagle player will earn $10,000 for a win in the first round, where they are drawn against defending champions Zambia, Burkina Faso and Ethiopia.

This would translate to $30,000 each if they win all three first round matches, the same amount they also received when they qualified for the quarterfinal of the 2010 tournament in Angola.
