men got $55,000 each for making the 2014 World Cup roster, then split $4.3 million for earning four points in the group stage and reaching the knockout stage. after the Americans won their second straight title. It awarded $30 million for the 24 teams at the 2019 Women’s World Cup, including $4 million to the U.S. Last week, the federation asked the men’s union to voluntarily equalize World Cup bonus money paid to the federation by FIFA.įIFA awarded $400 million in prize money for the 32 teams at the 2018 men’s World Cup, including $38 million to champion France. Soccer will deliver over the course of a new CBA,” the federation said in a statement. “This proposal will ensure that USWNT and USMNT players remain among the highest-paid senior national team players in the world, while providing a revenue sharing structure that would allow all parties to begin anew and share collectively in the opportunity that combined investment in the future of U.S. The single pay structure would include revenue sharing. But the federation also maintained that some provisions currently in the women’s contract, like National Women’s Soccer League salaries and maternity leave and pay, would not necessarily be dropped from federation proposals. Soccer says it believes the best way forward is a single pay structure for both senior national teams. The women’s team is in Cleveland for a match Thursday night against Paraguay, the United States’ first game since earning a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics in a disappointing finish for the Women’s World Cup champions. So, of course we’re always hopeful, you have to continue to have hope.” What we really want to do is see what we can do at the negotiation table, see those statements be put into action in those negotiations. “Looking at the (USSF) statements it’s difficult to say, we want to feel encouraged and we want to be optimistic, but we have seen a lot of statements before. “We don’t want to start the new year without a new CBA in effect, so that’s the number one priority of our PA, of our legal team,” Morgan said. The women’s agreement runs through this December. The men’s contract expired in December 2018. The unions for the men and women are separate and they have no obligation under federal labor law to bargain jointly or to agree to similar terms. The offers are the latest salvo by the federation to address the highly successful women team’s demands for compensation equitable to what the men’s team receives. But the governing body also said it would refuse to agree to a deal in which World Cup prize money is not equalized. Soccer said Tuesday it offered identical contracts to the players’ associations for the men’s and women’s national teams.
