World Cup fever is already starting to be felt, and little by little FIFA is confirming different details about the organization of the World Cup. This week, football’s governing body confirmed that, for each player called up, it will pay eleven thousand dollars per day of competition to the clubs that own their registration rights, a sum that amounts to at least 150 thousand. Boca and River, with several players who could take part in the tournament, would receive a substantial amount.
The Xeneize have three players with strong chances of playing in the competition: Leandro Paredes with the Argentina national team, and Adam Bareiro and Ángel Romero with Paraguay. If all three take part in the tournament, the club from La Ribera will be guaranteed a base amount of 450 thousand dollars.
Meanwhile, the Millonario have even more, as Marcos Acuña, Gonzalo Montiel, Matías Viña, Kevin Castaño, Juan Fernando Quintero, and Kendry Páez are regularly called up by their national teams. If all of them are selected, it would mean at least 900 thousand dollars.
Of course, if the teams keep advancing, the amount could be even higher. If Argentina reaches the final, the two Superclásico rivals of Argentine football would receive another 242,000 per Albiceleste player.
It is worth noting that both clubs have several players on Lionel Scaloni’s 55-man preliminary list, although their chances of being in the United States wearing the world champions’ shirt are significantly lower. In River’s case, they are Santiago Beltrán, Germán Pezzella, Lucas Martínez Quarta, and Aníbal Moreno, while for the blue-and-gold side the names are Lautaro Di Lollo, Milton Delgado, and Tomás Aranda.
