President of Nápoles motivates team with prize of 10 million euros
Money will be given to the squad in case of qualification for the Club World Cup
Corriere dello Sport reports that Aurelio Di Laurentiis, president of Napoli , has promised a prize of 10 million euros to the squad if it qualifies for the 2025 Club World Cup . This Tuesday’s match with Barcelona will therefore be extremely important for the club.
After the 1-1 draw in the first leg in Italy, Napoli will play this Tuesday, in Catalonia, to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League . And only if you get there will you have a chance of being in the World Cup.
For now, Inter is the only Italian team with a guaranteed presence in the new competition. The second and last place in the country currently belongs to Juventus , who have 47 points as a result of European participation in previous seasons.
Napoli have 42, but if they reach the quarter-finals, they will gain two or three points, depending on whether they manage to eliminate Barça within 90 minutes or not. Afterwards, they can continue to gain points until they take Juventus’ place, but for now, they have to beat Barcelona
