Real Madrid hand their Champions League winning squad a watch worth £24,000 alongside a bonus of half a million EACH!

  • Real Madrid's Champions League win was their tenth European title
  • The squad have been rewarded with money and gifts for 'La Decima'
  • Carlo Ancelotti's side have since gone on a 16 game winning streak   

Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid have enjoyed an astounding year, following up Champions League glory by winning sixteen straight games this season to set a new club record.

That victory in May, a 4-1 triumph against fierce rivals Atletico Madrid after extra-time, went down in folklore as 'La Decima' as it was their tenth European title.

The players were rewarded financially for the feat with a handsome sum of 500,000 euros (£392,000) each, but that is not where the generosity has stopped from the club, according to Marca.

Real have handed each player a watch to commemorate the achievement, the Panerai Radiomir GMT Oro Rosso. 

The watch is worth around £24,000 and has a strap made out of alligator skin.

It is undoubtedly another extremely generous gesture from the club, although they must be slightly concerned at how they can surpass it if Ancelotti's side continue their relentless winning streak.
