DBasia.news – Liverpool, is on the verge of bringing home prizes that are close to £ 100 million if they beat Tottenham Hotspur in next week’s Champions League final.
That amount is a new record for the English team in a tournament.
If they fail, Liverpool are said to win £ 94.6 million while Tottenham Hotspur will add a bank account of £ 94 million if they win and £ 89.5 million if they lose.
These amounta appear based on calculations from a number of factors such as match fees since the group round to bonuses for group winners. Not to mention the addition of additional payments due to the success of the team qualifying for the last 16, the top eight, the semi-finals and finals.
The difference in prizes between champions and runners-up in the most elite club competition in Europe itself is only around £ 3.5 million.
However, there are still two additional prizes from UEFA regarding the income of the participating clubs, namely ‘market pool’ share and ‘co-efficient pool share’.
Market pool shares are calculated based on complicated calculations with various factors such as the league rankings in the previous season and compensation paid by TV companies in participating countries to UEFA for Champions League broadcasting rights.
While co-efficient pool shares are prize money for clubs with the best history in Europe in the last decade.
