The Greece players have showed just how admirable they are after rejecting their World Cup bonuses – and instead asking for the money to be used to build a new training centre for the team. The squad detailed their request in a signed letter to the Greek Prime Minister, Antonis Samaras, on Sunday after qualifying for the last 16 of the tournament in Brazil for the first time in their history. ‘We do not want extra bonus, or money. We only play for Greece and its people,’ Greek media reported the players as writing. ‘All we want is for you to support our effort to find a land and create a sports center that will house our National team.’ metro.co.uk/2014/06/29/admirable-greece-players-ask-for-world-cup-bonuses-to-be-used-to-build-new-training-centre-4780309/
