The Ukrainian national team could earn 3 million euros in the Nations League
In the new edition of the UEFA Nations League, the Ukrainian national soccer team could earn up to 3 million euros in prize money if it performs well.
Competing in League B, the second-tier division, the national team is guaranteed a solidarity payment of 1.5 million euros. Under UEFA rules, individual wins or draws do not result in additional payments; however, finishing first in the group will double the financial reward, adding another 1.5 million euros.
In its group, the Ukrainian national team will face Hungary, Northern Ireland, and Georgia. In addition to the financial incentive, the tournament offers the opportunity to advance to the elite League A and secure an additional chance to qualify for Euro 2028.
