Sunday evening, Paris Saint-Germain has the opportunity to complete a legendary 2024/2025 season. Winner of Ligue 1, the French Cup, the Champions Trophy and the first Champions League in its history, the club of the capital can add the Club World Cup to its record if it beats Chelsea to the Metlife Stadium … before perhaps lifting the European Super Cup in a month against Tottenham. Sportingly, Luis Enrique's men cannot do better.

On the financial level, it's the same. After the gains generated thanks to his coronation in C1, the European champion 2025 will also touch a sacred jackpot thanks to FIFA. Qualified for the final of the brand new competition created by the world football, Paris won the most remunerative match in its history against Real Madrid. Indeed, FIFA granted a € 25.6 million gain to the two winning teams in the semi-finals. An amount greater than the largest gain provided in the Champions League, namely the € 18.5 million promised to the two qualified training courses for the final.

Paris can earn an additional € 34.2 million

An even more impressive jackpot when you look at the scale of guaranteed gains published on the official FIFA website. Paris thus pocketed € 1.7 million per victory (against Atlético de Madrid and Seattle Sounders). Then, the red and blue received € 6.4 million for a qualification for the eighth, € 11.2 million for the quarters, € 17.9 million for the semi-finals, € 25.6 million for the final. Thanks to its journey, PSG therefore received € 64.5 million. And that's not all since European training was guaranteed to gain between € 10.9 million and € 32.6 million as a bonus for participating in the tournament.

PSG being one of the best stables on the old continent, so it received around thirty million euros additional. This brings its earnings today to an estimated amount between € 91 million and € 97 million (the exact amount of the participation bonus is not known). The French champions would also be the team that has received the most money at the moment, just ahead of Chelsea, his next opponent. Added to this are the last two gains put into play. If Paris is beaten by the Blues, it will receive a new check for € 25.6 million. On the other hand, if he wins, it will be € 34.2 million that will land in the Ile -de -France funds.
