Euro 2024: Spain inflict pain on pitiful England
Spain have won all the games in the European Championship leading to the final
England's national team players, despite their hefty club salaries, earned a surprisingly modest £2,000 (KSH 32,2959) per game for their appearances in the international arena.
This amount, traditionally allocated to each player, has been steadfastly donated to the England Football Foundation for the past 17 years.
Rather than pocketing the potentially higher sums they could earn, such as up to £14,000 (KSH 226,0718) for reaching the Euro 2024 final, the players have chosen to contribute towards charitable causes supported by the Foundation, resulting in over £5million (KSH 807 M) raised since 2007.
