Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid face off in the second semi-final on Wednesday evening, with the Blues lying in wait in Sunday's final.

The total prize money one team can earn from winning the competition is £92m, down from £97m since the tournament began due to the exchange rate between US dollars and British pounds changing in the weeks since, but Chelsea will earn less than that should they lift the trophy on Sunday.

How much is the Club World Cup prize money worth?

The participating fee varies for European teams, so Chelsea would not necessarily earn the same as potential finalists PSG or Real Madrid, depending on "sporting and commercial criteria". FIFA are yet to confirm the participation fee for teams, but it has been reported that Manchester City’s is bigger than Chelsea’s.

However, the prize money does not differ once the tournament begins, with group stage wins worth around £1.5m and draws earning £750,000.

Clubs who qualified out of their group earned £5.4m, with another £9.5m in the kitty for reaching the quarter-finals.

A semi-final spot was worth £15.2m and then reaching the final guaranteed another £21.8m. The winner gets another £7.5m on top of that, and the trophy of course.

The total prize pot Fifa has offered is $1bn (£726m), which is believed to be a record amount.

How much prize money have Chelsea won so far?

Chelsea's semi-final win over Fluminense was their fifth of six games, having lost one group-stage game, against Flamengo, and took their total earnings for the competition to around £80m, depending on their exact participation fee.

That total will rise by around £7.5m should they win the final, for a total winnings of £87.5m.

Blues boss Enzo Maresca was asked about the club's £80m windfall following the semi-final victory, to which he responded: "Chelsea have made that. Not me. I prepare for the games in the same way, and I don't care about the money. We don't get any of it, unfortunately."
