Delicious irony – UEFA set to pay a record amount to City (update P8)

Before the europa league winners got a champs league place , the prize was year long membership to Blockbusters , a matching kettle and toaster from Argos (also available from other reputable retailers) , and a choice of cuddly toy up to the value of 5 euros.
 
If they win the thing outright they'll get about €20m in prize money plus whatever share they get of the English share of the overall market pool (it's €152m in total, so I'd estimate about €8m) call it €30m total as winners, €27m if they're runners up, €24m for semi finalists) plus the €300k they got out of the Sterling add ons of course.
Cheers
Thought it would have been more for such entertainment.
 
How have the rags made more than Arsenal, with their last 16 exit last season, getting spanked in the group stage this season?
They're not. Arsenal as it stands are going to get €15m more than the rags. You might be looking at the historical figures.
 
Our success in the CL this season is impeccably timed to benefit from the significantly increased UEFA Prize Pool and Market Pool. How brilliant would it be to boo the UEFA anthem in the final, go on to win it and receive c€100mil from UEFA? The ultimate “2 fingers up” to the corrupt organisation and G14 clubs who tried to stop us.

Headlines:

· already guaranteed City will receive the highest amount ever by an English team

· finish runners-up and it is likely we will be the all-time highest earners (English and rest of Europe) from the Champions League.

· If we actually win it we will pick-up c€100mil – guaranteed all-time high.


English Teams
Previous highest CL revenue in best "financial" season:


€59.93M - Chelsea (2012 winners)
€53.19M – United (2011 runners-up)
€45.85M – City (2015 last 16)
€36.38M - Arsenal (2015 last 16)
€33.95M – Liverpool (2015 group stage)

This season:
€83.84M* - City (if we don’t progress past the semi-final)
€70.06M - Chelsea
€53.56M - Arsenal
€38.54M - United

If we are runners-up our total revenue will increase to €95.68M and if we win it will be €100.18M. In both these scenarios the figures for Chelsea, Arsenal and United would drop a bit.

*Based on the best estimate of English teams sharing €145M for the Market Pool element which represents c30% of the total UEFA Market Pool for 2015/2016 of €482.9 million. The Market Pool is the part of UEFA’s TV income which is distributed according to which league the team comes from and number of matches played by a team.

European Teams
By way of comparison here are the highest revenue figures for the big European sides in their respective best “financial” season:

€89.10M* – Juventus (2015 runners-up)
€61.02M - Barcelona (2015 winners)
€57.41M – Real Madrid (2014 winners)
€56.15M – PSG (2015 last 8)
€55.04M – Bayern (2013 Winners)
€54.16M – Dortmund (2013 runners-up)
€50.04M – Atletico (2014 runners-up)

*The Juventus figure is the record high. They earnt so much more than Barcelona last season because the Italian TV deal was second only to the English deal and Juventus shared the Italian market pool with only 1 other club.
Great work. Thanks for the info.
 
This is why uefa dislike the English teams tonthe core, cause they take most of the profits more than the Spanish teams. Amazing.
 
If we missed out on the CL this season would our earnings from it this year cover our potential losses?
No, as the prize pool will be just as big next year and just as unlikely to be shared at the latter stages.
 
I am, that's what I meant.

But I suppose it's explained by the reshuffle and increase of the prize pool.
It's explained by the scum winning the final in 08 or losing in 11 being their best effort while since the money rocketed the Arse haven't made it past the second round.
 
So broken down ( and for English people ;) ) that's £30m in prize money:
£10m for entering Group Stage
£4.8m for 4 Group Stage wins
£800k for 2 Group Stage draws
£4.4m for RD16
£4.8m for QF
£5.5m for SF

And £34.5m for 30% of Market Pool (BT TV Rights) due to finishing 2nd in PL last season
+ a bit (unknown) more for going at least 2 stages further than Arse, Chelsea and Utd

Overall we're currently looking at over £65m (more than double what we got last year £28.5m) AKA Pogba ;)

If we were to get to the final it would jump to over £73m, and if we were to pull it off we'd be looking at over £77m - tho that wouldn't really be on anyone's minds at that point lol
