Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard will lead England's quest to win the Fifa World Cup next summer, aware that they will be chasing not only winners' medals, but a prize fund more than 60 per cent larger than in Germany 2006.
More than US$420 million will be on offer at the competition, with US$30 million handed as a prize to the winning country. Every team participating will receive at least US$1 million, with the runner-up landing US$24 million.
Meanwhile, each club who contributes players to the competition will receive US$1,600 per day, per player - meaning that, for example, Liverpool or Manchester United would receive US$48,000 per player should England stay in the competition until the final.
In return, clubs have agreed that any compensation claims for injuries will not be pursued through the civil courts.
