Super Eagles of Nigeria earn $2.5m for reaching semi-final

The Super Eagles of Nigeria have so far earned a whopping $2.5m as prize money after reaching the semi-final of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON.

The Confederation of African Football (CAF) announced a 40 per cent increase in prize money a day before the beginning of the competition.

Quarterfinalists will receive $1.3 Million each, while Round of 16 qualifiers got $800,000 a team. CAF gives the money to the Nigeria Football Federation who then disburse the money to players and staff.
