Final day! A few hours before the Champions League final against Arsenal, PSG has already achieved an excellent financial operation. Title holders after their historic coronation against Inter Milan last season, the capital club is aiming for a second consecutive European trophy this Saturday in Budapest, but also a new jackpot.
As recalled The TeamParis Saint-Germain is already guaranteed to receive nearly 140 million euros from UEFA at the end of this European campaign. This sum is broken down between income from TV rights and marketing (around €34 million), the portion linked to the club’s UEFA coefficient over the last ten years (nearly €11 million) and, above all, the various performance bonuses.
The Parisian course has already earned him big: €18.62 million for participation in the competition, around €18.4 million thanks to his results in the league phase, then €11 million for qualifying for the round of 16, €12.5 million for the quarter-finals, €15 million for the semi-finals and finally €18.5 million for his presence in the final. In total, PSG has already secured €139.4 million, an amount only lower than that of Arsenal (€143.2 million), who had a better run during the league phase.
A bonus of one million euros per player
But the counter could still climb. A victory in the final would bring in an additional €6.5 million, to which would be added €4 million guaranteed for participation in the UEFA Super Cup against the winner of the Europa League. Enough to bring the club’s European revenues to nearly €150 million.
Parisian players also have significant financial motivation. According to the sports daily, the management of PSG has planned an exceptional bonus of around one million euros per head in the event of a new European coronation. This reward will be awarded collectively. All players who participated in this Champions League campaign, even occasionally, will receive the entire bonus. A way for the club to reward the entire group in the event of a historic double on the European scene.
