Europe's leading clubs will make millions from the World Cup with FIFA set to pay them a record amount of $10,000 per player per day while their stars are in Qatar.
Manchester City, Real Madrid, Tottenham and Barcelona were among the top earners at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, when FIFA distributed $209million (around £157m) under its Club Benefits Programme.
The more players a club has at the World Cup and the further they progress in the tournament, the more money they stand to earn under the scheme.
And the pot on offer has been boosted from a rate of $8,530 (£6,440) per player per day in 2018 to $10,000 (£9,012) this time around.
It means Premier League clubs such as Chelsea - who have as many as 20 players in contention for World Cup selection, including representatives of tournament favourites like France, Brazil and England - stand to profit most from their stars being away.
Man City - who made just over $5m, or £3.78m at 2018 exchange rates, at the last World Cup - could have as many as 17 internationals away in Qatar this time around.
Manchester United could have 18, Tottenham 17 and Arsenal 14 when the final squads are selected.
Real Madrid and Barcelona, who had 15 and 14 representatives respectively in 2018, are also likely to take a substantial share of the Club Benefit pot.
Any club with players going off to represent tournament favourites Brazil, France, England, Argentina or Spain are likely to benefit more because their players will be away for longer if they advance to the latter stages.
The tournament in Qatar runs from November 20 until December 18 - a compressed timeframe of 29 days that is shorter than usual to reflect its mid-season scheduling for most participants.
The per day aspect will apply for as long as 'the relevant player remains with his national team during the 2022 World Cup and the official preparation period.'
In most cases, this 'preparation period' will be essentially a week following the cessation of domestic leagues in mid-November.
The FIFA scheme was established for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa in recognition of clubs releasing their players for the tournament.
From a total of $40m in 2010, the amount made available rose to $70m at Brazil 2014 and then almost trebled to $209m in 2018.
The funds are shared out between the national football associations and then distributed to the clubs.
FIFA make the calculations based on the number of players selected by the 32 participating nations and the cumulative number of days players will be on international duty at the World Cup.
In 2018, this equated to 736 players and approximately 24,500 days, including two weeks of preparation leading up to the opening match.
It worked out approximately $8,530 per player per day before tax, but this figure has now been increased.
The calculation for a player ends the day after their country is eliminated from the World Cup.
Man City had 16 players at the 2018 World Cup and received just over $5m. Benjamin Mendy won the tournament with France, while six City players played for semi-finalists England and Belgium.
Real Madrid were given just over $4.8m (£3.63m at the time) for their 15 players, while Spurs got $4.39m (£3.31m) for the dozen players that went to Russia.
Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, Manchester United, Atletico Madrid and Juventus all received over $3m as part of their share four years ago.
The Saudi club Al-Hilal were handed just over $2m (£1.5m) because they had nine players in the Saudi side that exited after the group stage.
