"It is a testament to the new harmony in European soccer, and the willingness of associations and clubs to cooperate for the good of the game, that we are able to deliver to the clubs a tangible benefit for their contribution to UEFA Euro 2008." UEFA President Michel Platini announces that UEFA will pay $55 million to 180 clubs in 24 countries for their players' participation in last summer's European Championship. Werder Bremen is top of the list with a payout of almost $1.4 million.
