salubrey. Djurgården won five of their six group stage matches and reached the round of 16 in the Conference League Europe.
After the success, the players received nearly ten million crowns in rewards.
– Approved, says Elias Anderson.
It was a great success when Djurgården was ready for the group stage in Europe for the first time ever.
Once there, the team started to move away against the Shamrock Rovers. This was then followed by five consecutive victories and a place in the round of 16 of the Europa League.
This success gave Animal Farm gamers a real buzz in their coffers. According to Sportbladet’s information, each win in the group stage was worth 750,000 kronor, and in total, the successes should have given players nearly ten million kronor to participate.
For the 23 players in the squad, that would mean around SEK 400,000 per person.
– Good bonuses were paid, but no one escaped the fact that Djurgården also got a good deal financially during the European Cup match, says sporting director Bossy Andersson.
“I bought an apartment”
Djurgården is currently in a training camp in Salobre in Gran Canaria. When Sportbladet asked Elias Anderson and Joel Asuro about the reward, they said with a smile:
– It was approved.
What did you do with the money?
– It is saved. I have some in the apartment. I haven’t had time to think about what I want to do with them—they’re joint decisions with my girls, too, says Asuru.
Anderson, however, sat on a small portion of the money.
– I had a really good and luxurious trip in Dubai with my girlfriend, I spent some money there. Then I just bought an apartment. Then he also says I kept a little bit.
