England's women's team have reportedly agreed the 'most generous' bonus in their history ahead of the first game of the 2022 European Championship.
The Lionesses open the tournament with a clash against Austria on Wednesday night and will receive a healthy boost to their bank accounts if they go on to lift the trophy. The closest they have come to winning the tournament was in 2009, when they finished as runners-up.
They will have the added incentive of attempting to win a home tournament, with every game of this year's Euros taking place in England. And to add further fuel to their fire to win the competition, they will be handed a staggering bonus if they do.
