Wolves are on massive bonuses to reach European football, it has been revealed.

The Daily Mail says Wolves players will share a pot of £3million for finishing 17th, with 10th landing them £10m.

A Europa League place gives the squad £12m.

It is a highly unusual structure for a promoted team but illustrates the priorities of owners Fosun, who wish to build Wolves into a Premier League force.

A contrast can be observed at Cardiff, where it's understood a £10m pot will be shared between the players simply for avoiding relegation, with no additions for any positions higher.
