This is what Junior will receive for having passed the round

The Colombian team claimed its presence among the best 16 on the continent.

Junior achieved the highest objective of this Copa Libertadores, which was to qualify for the round of 16, a fact that he had not done for 13 years, when in 2011 he was able to play for the last time in this phase where he will be measured among the best 16 on the continent. although now they must define whether those led by Arturo Reyes will qualify as first or second in Group E, taking into account that Botafogo also accessed this phase, and will decide the positions on the last date at the Metropolitano.

Beyond the fact that it is not yet known whether Junior will be first or second in his group, the only thing that is already known is how much money the Colombian team will receive for the simple fact of having qualified for the round of 16 of the Libertadores.

Seeing that Junior beat Liga de Quito 1-0 and that Botafogo beat Universitario with the same result, it was determined that Arturo Reyes’ team will receive 1.25 million dollars, simply for having reached the round of 16.

The best thing with this monetary increase for Junior is that before qualifying, he already had a profit of 3.66 million dollars, with 3 million being just for playing the group stage, and 330 thousand dollars for each victory obtained in these six matches.

With these numbers Junior would obtain at least 4.91 million dollars before knowing his rival in the round of 16, although that money could add up to 5.24 million in case the Barranquilleros beat Botafogo on the last date of the group stage of the Libertadores Cup.

Without a doubt, this is quite positive income for the Colombians, who will seek to sign the most suitable players to compete in the round of 16 again after not having done so 13 years ago. An instance that will be played starting next semester, once the Copa América in the United States has finished.
