The bonus Florentino will pay each Real Madrid player if they win the World Cup

Long before it began, Real Madrid had already set its sights on winning the Club World Cup. The revamped tournament by FIFA offered many attractions for the Merengue club. Even so, in an effort to further motivate its players, Florentino Pérez has promised them a €1 million reward if they manage to win the World Cup.

Taking the Club World Cup very seriously, Real Madrid is highly focused on its match against Borussia Dortmund. After defeating Juventus in the round of 16, Real Madrid trusts it will secure a spot in the semifinals. In that stage, the opponent could be Bayern Munich or PSG, the current Champions League titleholder.

The road to the grand final won't be easy, but Real Madrid has overcome tougher challenges in the past. With Xabi Alonso as coach and a squad motivated to make history, Real Madrid is the clear favorite to win the Club World Cup.

Squad income

Real Madrid's debut in the Club World Cup left many doubts. By drawing against Al Hilal, the club managed to solve most of its mistakes for the next match. By using three center-backs and strengthening both full-backs, Xabi managed to form a squad that has been unstoppable throughout the World Cup.

The emergence of players like Gonzalo García has also influenced the team's great moment. With the grand final of the World Cup set for next July 13, Real Madrid is aware that the tournament is in its final stage.

Although lifting the trophy is already enough motivation for the entire team, Florentino went a step further. His promise reflects the great relationship and trust he has in a squad that could give him its first great joy.

History to be made

Despite all the problems Real Madrid had during the season, this one could end well. Winning the Club World Cup would be a big step for Xabi Alonso in his new stage as Real Madrid's coach.
