Josip Juranvoic and Borna Barisic will keep the Scottish flag flying into their third-place play-off ahead of the final in Qatar, and Scottish Premiership clubs have banked almost £9,000 per day for every one of their players involved at the tournament as part of the FIFA Club Benefits programme. A further £8,700 per day for every player involved who has played for them in the last two years, meaning some unlikely paydays are just around the corner.

Jason Cummings who headed to Australia to kickstart his career with the Central Coast Mariners will land a big pay day for Dundee in the Championship. Jackson Irvine, who also left Hibs for St Pauli in the summer of 2021 will keep the cash flowing to Scotland.
