The Champions League is worth its weight in gold, particularly for Real Madrid players who will pocket a handsome 600,000 euro bonus if they get their hands on the trophy.

Either Real or Atletico Madrid will be crowned the best in Europe on Saturday to receive more than sporting glory - the monetary reward is worth having too.

For winning the Champions League and going on to take part in the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup, it is estimated a club will get close to 120 million euros from the two sporting bodies based in Nyon and Zurich.

In the case of Los Blancos, that would mean 600,000 euros for each participating player who helped them to win their 11th continental title.

The lion's share would go to all first-team players, regardless of how many games they've played, while participating reserve players would get a proportion along with employees.

The agreement has been decided by key players such as Sergio Ramos, Marcelo, Pepe and Cristiano Ronaldo with the president Florentino Perez.

It is considerably more than the 400,000 euros they received for winning the trophy in Lisbon two years ago.

This extra outlay can cause problems in balancing the books but Real Madrid always makes provisions to prevent problems.
