The winning team at the FIFA Club World Cup in December will receive US$4.5 million, the same as in 2005, Japanese media reported Saturday, citing the Japan Football Association.
A total of 15 million dollars in prize money will be on offer for the six teams involved in the Dec.10-17 tournament in Japan. The competition pits the champions from six regional confederations, with Asia and Africa still to be decided.
This year, the tournament will open at Toyota Stadium in Aichi Prefecture and the final will be played at Nissan Stadium in Yokohama.
Meanwhile in Zurich, Switzerland, FIFA on Friday officially approved Japan as host of Club World Cup for a third straight year in 2007.
