Israel National Football Team Eyes UEFA Nations League Prize Money
The Israeli national football team is set to begin its UEFA Nations League campaign on Thursday, competing in League B against Ireland, Austria, and Kosovo. Participation alone guarantees Israel €1.5 million, with the potential to double this amount if they finish at the top of their group. Unlike club competitions, there are no bonuses for individual match wins or draws in the Nations League.
The overall prize pool for the tournament ranges between €80 million and €90 million, distributed across all four leagues. Teams in League A can earn up to €4.5 million, League C up to €2.25 million, and League D up to €1.5 million.
While the exact number of playoff spots for the next European Championship remains unclear, particularly with multiple host nations for Euro 2028, performance in the Nations League is expected to influence qualification chances. The top two teams from each group will advance to the European Championship.
