Anderlecht have several players who will be active for Euro 2024. This is not only good for the club from a sporting standpoint, but also financially.
No top-tier team in Belgium has seen more international players called up for the European Championship than Anderlecht. At least six Purple & White players will go to Germany.
With Jan Vertonghen and Zino Debast, there are already two Red Devils. Kasper Schmeichel, Kasper Dolberg, Thomas Delaney and Anders Dreyer will do their best for the Danish national team.
In addition to the sporting aspect, this is also a great bonus for the Brussels club’s wallet. According to HLN, the Purple & White receive compensation of €9,000 per day for each player active in the European Championship.
This ensures that Anderlecht are already certain to receive €1.1 million. They will receive this amount anyway as the final group matches will be completed on June 26.
If the Red Devils and Denmark perform well, this amount could rise. If the two countries qualify for the final 16, Anderlecht will receive 1.5 million euros. If Belgium and Denmark face each other in the final, the Purple and White will receive €2 million.
It must be said that Delaney, Vertonghen and Schmeichel’s contracts expire on June 30, which means they are no longer officially a Anderlecht player. As a result, the club will not receive compensation for them after that date.
