This season, UEFA launched its new formula from the Champions League. If some are seduced by this format, others believe that it was better before, especially with regard to the championship phase. But there is one thing that has not really changed, is that the leading body of European football continues to pay important sums to the teams involved in this competition.
Moreover, UEFA unveiled this Friday the amounts of the winnings perceived by the clubs during the 2023-24 edition. An edition won by Real Madrid, which set out to the pockets. Indeed, Casa Blanca pocketed the tidy sum of € 141 million according to UEFA, whose figures are relayed by Marca.
This amount was calculated based on several bonuses related to participation, results, market pool or the UEFA coefficient.
PSG has pocketed a jackpot
Behind the European champions, we find Manchester City. The Skyblues did not reach the final but they have raised a nice jackpot since they won € 122 million. Just behind, we find Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, third ex-aequo. The two clubs obtained € 121 million. What put butter in spinach. Regarding PSG, an unhappy semi-finalist against Borussia Dortmund who won € 120 million, the harvest is good.
Barça completes the top 5 of this C1 with an envelope of € 102 million. Then come the Atlético de Madrid (€ 95 million), Arsenal (€ 94 million), Inter Milan (€ 71 million) and Naples (€ 70 million). This season, all these little people may take even more money. For the moment, Paris Saint-Germain has obtained € 91.9 million thanks to its journey. A qualification for the 1/4 finals would allow the club of Nasser al-Khelaïfi to inflate this sum of € 12.5 million.
