Thanks to the beautiful course of the Blues at the World Cup, the staff of the Blues and Didier Deschamps in particular have touched a nice jackpot.
Didier Deschamps left Qatar bruised after the World Cup. Consequence of the cruel defeat conceded to penalties against Argentina in the final. The tricolor coach, whom we know how to be animated by victory, did not hide his deep disappointment despite the beautiful journey of the Blues, however handicapped by many absences including those of Paul Pogba, N’Golo Kanté, Mike Maignan or Karim Benzema.
And if this World Cup was also synonymous with a large controversy for the former midfielder due to the vagueness that surrounded the Package of the Ballon d’Or, Didier Deschamps was nevertheless a reason for satisfaction after this Qatari World Cup. The adventure of the Blues in Qatar was indeed synonymous with a nice check for him and his staff. According to the team, the Bayonne native would have received a bonus of 1.1 million euros. And this while the tricolor players had to ‘satisfy’ of 490,000 euros for their final.
Much better served than players
Each player present in Qatar has received an image law premium, at the rate of 30,000 euros per game, and another indexed on their results, the tricolor group and the staff having to share 30% of the sum paid by FIFA for the Blues course at the World Cup, or 28 million euros. A sum to be divided into 29.5 shares, or 280,000 euros per player or member of staff, except Cyril Monk, the physical trainer, who must be satisfied with half a share.
But if the players have received 280,000 euros of sports premium and 210,000 euros in image law premium, or 490,000 euros, Didier Deschamps would have received 2 shares for the right to image and 2.5 shares for the sports premium, therefore around 1.1 million euros. Guy Stephan would also have been better paid than players with 1.25 share for the right to image and 1.5 Part of a sports premium, around 680,000 euros, and it would be the same with Franck Raviot, who would have had 1.25 sports premium and would therefore have received 560,000 euros.
