The monthly salary of Cape Verdean players is only a few thousand yuan, not enough for a single serving of sea cucumber!
At the 2026 World Cup, the Cape Verde team ranked 70th in the world continuously drew with Spain and Uruguay, two former world champions, shocking the football world. Even more heartbreaking than the upset is the unknown survival story behind this team. According to local Chinese merchants, the local players in Cape Verde earn only 1,000 to 2,000 yuan per month after conversion to RMB, and the vast majority of players need to take on multiple part-time jobs to make ends meet. Goalkeeper Vozinia is no exception. Mr. Lin, a Wenzhou businessman who has been doing business in Cape Verde for 23 years, has known Vozinia’s family for a long time. Both of Vozinia’s brothers played for a local club sponsored by Mr. Lin in their early years, and Vozinia’s cousin now works in a clothing store operated by Mr. Lin’s wife. According to Mr. Lin, the local players in Cape Verde earn only 1,000 to 2,000 yuan per month after conversion to RMB, and the basic wages of ordinary local residents are also generally within this range, with only some civil servants earning relatively higher salaries.
The survival of the Cape Verde team relies on recruiting many descendants of Cape Verdean immigrants. More than half of the players in this national team come from Cape Verdean immigrant communities in Portugal, France, the Netherlands, and other countries. Most of these players received youth training at European clubs and play in various league levels. Goalkeeper Vozinia previously played for the Portuguese second division team Chaves, with his contract expiring on June 30. The team has already notified him that they will not renew his contract—this hero who kept Spain scoreless in the World Cup is about to become a free agent.
Even so, the Cape Verdeans’ passion for football has never faded. Mr. Lin told reporters that football has long been an ingrained part of Cape Verdean culture. Almost every neighborhood has its own football club, and children and young people can be seen playing football everywhere on the streets. “Everyone plays purely out of love for the game. Being able to represent their hometown and country in matches is very precious to them.”
Cape Verdean players earn only a few thousand yuan a month—nowhere near enough for even one meal of sea cucumber!
At the 2026 World Cup, the Cape Verde team ranked 70th in the world managed to draw consecutively against Spain and Uruguay, two former world champions, shocking the football world. More upsetting than the upset results is the little-known survival story behind this team. According to local Chinese merchants, the monthly salary of Cape Verdean native players—converted into RMB—is only 1,000 to 2,000 yuan. Most players need to take on multiple part-time jobs to support their families; goalkeeper Vozinia is no exception. In Cape Verde, after 23 years in business, Wenzhou businessman Mr. Lin has known Vozinia since long ago. In their early years, the two brothers from Vozinia played for a local club that Mr. Lin had sponsored with supplies over a long period of time. Vozinia’s cousin now works at a clothing store run by Mr. Lin’s wife. As Mr. Lin explains, the monthly salary of native Cape Verdean players—converted into RMB—only falls in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 yuan, and the basic wages of local ordinary residents are basically kept within that same range; only some civil servants earn relatively higher pay.
The Cape Verde squad’s way of surviving lies in recruiting large numbers of descendants of Cape Verdean expatriates. In this national team, more than half of the players come from Cape Verdean immigrant communities in countries such as Portugal, France, and the Netherlands. Most of these players received youth training at clubs in Europe and have competed in leagues at various levels. Previously, goalkeeper Vozinia played for the Portuguese second-division team, the Shavish. His contract is set to expire on June 30, and the club has informed him that they will not renew his contract—this hero who kept Spain off the scoresheet at the World Cup is about to become a free agent.
Even so, the Cape Verdeans’ passion for football has never faded. Mr. Lin told reporters that football has long been embedded in Cape Verdean local culture “in the bones.” Almost every district has its own football club, and you can see children and young people playing soccer everywhere in the streets. “Everyone plays purely out of love for the game. Being able to represent their hometown and their country to compete is very precious to them.”
