It has been revealed that the government has awarded a bonus of 15 million CFA francs to each of the 23 players of the Togo national football team, known as the Sparrowhawks. The players themselves will manage the distribution based on the number of matches played.
Here’s a breakdown of the bonus negotiations:
- Initially, the players requested 18 million CFA francs for qualification.
- The government proposed 12 million CFA francs, which was rejected by the players.
- After negotiations, a consensus was reached with both parties agreeing to a bonus of 15 million CFA francs.
This bonus comes as a result of Togo’s victory (2-1), securing their qualification for the African Cup of Nations for the 8th time in its history.
