French Ligue 1 - PSG vs Boulogne
Paris Saint-Germain are set to offer their players significant incentive to secure Champions League football for the 2012-13 season.

The Ligue 1 outfit will reward each member of their squad with around €300,000 in the event that qualification for Europe’s premier club competition is achieved for next season, according to RMC.

It is not known whether the full bonus will apply if entry into the tournament is attained via a qualification play-off.

PSG currently sit three points ahead of Montpellier at the top of the Ligue 1 standings with 18 games remaining.

Their last appearance in the Champions League came in the 2004-05 campaign.
