How Club World Cup is paying for Man City and Chelsea's summer signings

Manchester City and Chelsea are already quids in from playing in the Fifa Club World Cup - and they could yet end up earning loads more.

Some of their summer signings' transfer fees have even already been paid off.

Some teams pocketed tens of millions just for qualifying.

BBC Sport looks at how much you can earn at the Club World Cup - and how much the English teams have made already.
