England's Lionesses will try and retain their Euros crown on Sunday when they come up against either Germany or Spain, but how much will each player get for reaching the final? And how will Sarina Wiegman be honoured if they do win it?

Ahead of the competition's opener in Switzerland this month, UEFA confirmed record prize money of €41 million for the 16-team tournament, which stands as an increase of 156 per cent on the prize money offered at Euro 2022.

In fact, the prize money on offer this summer is five times greater than the €8 million pot for teams competing in 2017.

"For the first time at a Women's EURO, players will be rewarded for their performances," says the UEFA website. "They will receive a guaranteed share of the prize money awarded to their national association."

In total, the Euro 2025 champions can take home up to €5.1 million when performance bonuses are added on top of a base participation fee of €1.8 million, which is awarded to all teams at the tournament.

So, how much will each player receive for reaching the Euros final? A report from The Times claims England’s Lionesses are each in line to receive an £87,000 fee and a bonus payment for reaching Sunday's showpiece event.

In addition to the above, there are also commercial endorsements which should take some players’ overall earnings to more than £100,000.

Sarina Wiegman, meanwhile, is also expected to receive a 'hefty' cash bonus but perhaps more significantly, the Dutch manager is also set to receive an honorary damehood if they win the tournament.

As mentioned above, UEFA have set aside a total prize pot of €41 million for Euro 2025, a 156 per cent increase from Euro 2022.

But if you compare that to the men's game, the total prize money at Euro 2024 was an eye-watering €331 million, with winners Spain taking home up to €28.25 million after beating England in the final.

Back in November 2024, England defender Lucy Bronze opened up on the pay gap between the men's and women's game.

Asked if women players can afford to retire, Bronze told Sky News: "The 1% probably can. If you're smart with your money and live a certain kind of lifestyle, then there's potential.

"I don't live a crazy lifestyle with crazy cars or houses. So I could retire and live on my investments. I've been smart with my money, I've paid off student loans throughout my career."

She added: "I know I've been successful in teams with a lot of money… I'm probably in that top per cent. Probably 99.9% of women's players… you have to think about life after football."
