FIFA will pay the player’s club $10,000 in compensation for each day a player spends at the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
This means that any Ghanaian club whose player is picked for the World Cup would receive at least $120,000 in compensation.
This is part of the World Football Federation’s Club Benefits Programme, which aims to recognize clubs’ contributions to the event.
According to the Daily Mail, $209 million was distributed to over 400 clubs from 63 countries during the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Clubs will receive $10,000 per player for every day they are at the World Cup as part of FIFA benefits programme. Will mean Premier League's big six could make about $5m each from a global pool of $209m. https://t.co/FwUAAzsj1U

Real Madrid, Barcelona, Tottenham Hotspur, and Barcelona won the most money because they had the most players at the past World Cup.
The $10,000 compensation is paid by FIFA’s Club Benefits Programme to all clubs for which a player has played in the two years preceding the event.
If a player has signed with two clubs in the two years preceding the competition, the money will be split equally between the two clubs.
In 2018, Manchester City made $5,003,440, Manchester United also banked $3,656,360, Arsenal got $2,218,720 and Chelsea earned $3,835,357.50.
