June 28 – Georgia’s Euro 2024 heroes are set to receive a $10.75 million gift from the country’s billionaire ex-prime minister Bidzina Ivanishvili after they stunned Portugal in the competition’s greatest ever upset to reach the knockout stage.
Ivanishvili, who founded the ruling Georgian Dream political party and became prime minister of the country in 2012, said he would donate the same sum to the squad and coaching staff should they also beat Spain in the last 16.
