The Prize Money for the AFL is as follows:
$4 000 000 for the Winner
$3 000 000 for the Runner-up
$1 700 000 for each of the Semi-finalists

Enyimba FC (Nigeria), Wydad AC (Morocco), Mamelodi Sundowns FC (South Africa), TP Mazembe (DR Congo), Espérance Sportive de Tunis (Tunisia) and Atlético Petróleos de Luanda (Angola).
However, there’s been reports surfacing that Masadnawana are considering withdrawing from the competition as the Premier Soccer League refused to accommodate the tournament and postpone the league by a further three weeks.
