Manchester City’s top players will earn more than £2million a man in bonuses if they achieve an historic Treble this season.
Pep Guardiola’s side booked their place in the Champions League semi-finals for the third consecutive season on Wednesday by beating Bayern Munich 4-1 on aggregate. City face Sheffield United in the FA Cup semi-finals tomorrow, before a huge Premier League home clash with Arsenal in midweek.
The defending champions are four points behind Arsenal with a game in hand as they look to become the first club since Manchester United in 2009 to lift three titles in a row.
City’s bonus system is structured on an individual basis rather than being an agreed amount that is shared among the squad.
Mail Sport understands bonuses for winning the league range from £200,000 to £900,000, while the sums on offer for lifting the FA Cup are somewhat less.

Pep Guardiola’s side could potentially win the historic treble this year after success in Europe
Leading players including Kevin De Bruyne will receive payouts in the region of £1m for delivering a first Champions League trophy for the club.
City’s last triumph in Europe came in 1970 in the Cup-Winners’ Cup.
‘We can win everything, of course,’ said City midfielder Rodri. ‘We’ve had a great seven or eight months to arrive in this moment to fight for everything. We have to give the best of us.’
