Swansea City is set to receive a cash boost this summer as three of their players will feature in the World Cup. Eom Jisung, Cameron Burgess, and Marko Stamenic will represent South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand respectively. The club will earn £334,500 from FIFA's Club Benefits Programme, which reimburses clubs for the time their registered players spend at the World Cup. The programme was first launched in 2010 to reward clubs equally and transparently for the time their players spend at the tournament. For the last World Cup, FIFA set aside $209m (£155m) distributed among 440 clubs from 51 FIFA Member Associations in all six confederations. It saw players paid around £8,000 a day. FIFA hasn't yet confirmed how much each day at the tournament will be worth to players, but the overall pot has been increased for this tournament to $355m (£263.8m). A portion of that rise, however, will be offset by the increased number of teams from 32 to 48. But going off the last tournament's figures, a player whose nation goes out in the group stages is likely to be worth around $250,000, with the player's daily rate running from 10 days before the tournament to the day after their final game for their country. They don't even need to actually play a single minute to be eligible, either. Merely being part of the squad is enough. However, there is a slight catch. According to the rules, the money is to be shared between any of the clubs that held the player's registration over the last two years. The exact cut-off point isn't clear, but it seemingly won't affect Eom Jisung, who joined in the summer of 2024. However, both Burgess and Stamenic joined last year, meaning any money gained from their World Cup campaign would be shared with their previous clubs. In the case of Stamenic, it seems likely both Nottingham Forest and Olympiakos would potentially be in line for cuts, while any amount clocked up for Burgess would need to be shared with Ipswich Town. As such, even if all three of Swansea's players tasted elimination in the group stages, the club would still be in line to receive at least around $450,000 (£334,500). That sum will clearly increase should any of the trio progress into the knockout stages. Take Eom Jisung's South Korea, for example. A place in the last 32 could generate as much as £32,000 for the Swans. That amount could then climb as high as £88,000 should they reach the last 16, and £128,000 should they reach the quarter-finals.
