• FA would pay out half its £38m Fifa prize money

• Players could net £15m, Thomas Tuchel £3m

England’s players and coaching staff will receive around half of the FA’s £38m Fifa prize money in bonuses if they win the World Cup.

The Guardian has learned that as part of a bonus scheme agreed with the players’ leadership group before the tournament, the FA will pay bonuses of around £15m to the squad, £3m to Tuchel and approximately £1m to his backroom team should Harry Kane lift the trophy in New York next weekend.
