Celtic to cash in on World Cup players.

So, the Daily Ranger was making the claim that Celtic were in line for an £800,000 windfall due to four of their players being at the World Cup. Because the Daily Ranger is a fucking sham of a paper, I decided to look it up myself.

Remarkably, it’s about right. First of all, here’s the link with the main information:

2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ - News - How do clubs benefit from the World Cup? - FIFA.com (http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/news/how-do-clubs-benefit-from-the-world-cup-2921370)

To break it down, a player who is at the tournament as a member of a full squad is paid $8,530 per day, including the fortnight beforehand. In Celtic’s case, they’ve got four players at the World Cup:

Rogic: Australia

Boyata: Belgium
