For advancing to the semi-final stage of the CAF Champions League, Sunshine Stars of Akure will be given $665,000 (N104 million).
The Akure based clubside qualified for the semi-final of the continental competition after Etoile du Sahel were disqualified from the tournament for crowd violence.
That ‘advancement’ will only be temporary as they were knocked out of the competition on 4-3 aggregate by six-time winners, Al-Ahly of Egypt.
For the two finalists (Esperance of Tunisia and Al-Ahly), the winner of the trophy will receive a cash prize of $1, 425,000, whilethe beaten finalist will go home with $950,000.
The cash prize of the Champions League is just a little short of the $1.5 million paid to the winners of the Africa Cup of Nations.
