Norwich City is in line for an estimated £420,000 Euro2024 windfall after Angus Gunn, Kenny McLean and Grant Hanley were all selected for Scotland’s final squad this summer.

Clubs with players representing their country at the tournament in Germany are entitled to compensation under Uefa’s club benefits programme, on a pro-rata basis.

Regardless of whether players take the field for not, Uefa pay clubs compensation for releasing players in the build up to tournaments, and their participation at the finals.

Even a group stage exit for Steve Clarke’s side – who aim to bounce back from an opening night 5-1 mauling to the hosts when they face Switzerland on Wednesday – could net City £140,000 per player.

This summer’s tournament has seen the overall pot of money available to clubs rise from €130m to €140m, distributed on the basis of a fixed amount per player per day.

Payments start from 10 days before a team’s first match at the finals, and extend until a day after they are eliminated (or lift the trophy).

This club-directed revenue is in addition to prize money and payments to the national associations.

For reaching the finals and taking part in the group stage, Scotland and the other 23 nations each earn €9.25m (roughly £7.85m).

That amount is guaranteed even if a team loses all three group stage games, but any success on top of that is rewarded.

A win in the group stage earns a further €1m (around £850,000) and a draw adds €500,000.

A place in the last 16 banks another €1.5m and getting through that game to make the quarter-finals would add another €2.5m rising to a prize pot of €8m for the winners of the tournament.

Gunn started Friday’s Euro2024 opener against Germany and was joined in the second half in Munich by Hanley and McLean.

Gunn and McLean were ever-present in Clarke’s plans during Scotland’s successful qualifying campaign – McLean netting a crucial winner to beat Norway on the road to Germany in June 2023.

Hanley was involved in the early qualifiers, before an injury-hit domestic campaign following Achilles surgery in April 2023. But the centre back started Scotland’s two pre-tournament friendlies to make the final cut for Clarke.

Scotland's squad will also share in a bonus pot from the Scottish FA.

The bonuses are split into two categories, with the first tranche shared between every player who featured in qualifying, from the first game against Cyprus to the last home game against Norway.

The second portion of the bonus will go to the players who travelled to Germany, with the scale of bonuses dependent on progress.
