How much money Arsenal will get from 2022 World Cup in Qatar ahead of January transfer window

Arsenal are set to receive an additional £1.5million from FIFA following the conclusion of the World Cup.

The tournament's organisers have paid for the privilege of having more than 800 players gather in Qatar to put on the event over the past four weeks. They call it their Club Benefits Programme, dishing out compensation to those employers who have helped make international stars.

Any club that has released a player for the World Cup will be eligible for a payment in return. FIFA says a grand total of $209million (£171.6million) has been made available for the current competition, with that breaking down as approximately $10,000 (£8,200) being paid for each player for every day they are away from clubs.
