Incentives for footballers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spurs

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'incentives' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'footballers' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for spurs that I've seen before include "Kicks out" , "One side of London" , "is stimulating" , "incentives" , "soccer team" .)
