The DFB and the senior players of the German squad met on Sunday and have agreed on the bonus scheme of €250,000 a man if they win the Euro 2008.

The scheme will see each memeber receive €50,000 if they make it through the first phase. It will rise to €100,000 for semi-finals and €150,000 if they lose in the final. The quarter-million each will be awarded if they win the cup.
