Liverpool has secured an impressive £83 million from the Champions League prize money fund, despite the loss in their final match of the initial stage. There's potential for the Anfield side to increase their earnings to £127 million if they succeed in claiming the trophy for the seventh time in Munich this May.
Arne Slot’s team has achieved top ranking for the knock-out stage, thanks to Barcelona conceding a late equaliser against Atalanta, even though Liverpool faced a defeat against PSV Eindhoven while fielding a less experienced side.
Liverpool's top performance in the competition earned them £15.61 million for qualifying, in addition to £12.32 million from their seven victories, with each win valued at £1.76 million.
The Reds also secured £8.3 million for finishing at the top of the league phase table, £1.69 million for placing in the top eight, and £9.22 million for advancing to the last 16.
Liverpool entered the competition with a guaranteed income of £35.44m from the latest TV deals and historical market pillar.
Arsenal, having finished third in the table following their victory at Girona, stands as the third-highest earner to date. The Gunners have secured a remarkable £75.9m from six wins and a draw across their eight games. Their share from the TV and market pillar amounts to £29.8m.
Barcelona stands strong, positioned between the two Premier League teams in the standings, and they have also outpaced them in earnings, raking in £76.3m to date.
Manchester City, despite their hard-fought victory over Bruges that secured their spot in the first knockout stage, currently claims the seventh spot among the highest earners in the competition.
To date, they have amassed £62.7 million, primarily as a result of receiving the second largest share £37.3 million of the broadcast revenue and past performance component.
This amounts to nearly £21 million for each victory they achieved in the group stage, where they faced Club Brugge, Sparta Praha, and Slovan Bratislava.
Munich has accrued £66.8 million and Madrid £66.5 million thus far, in addition to PSG, which has secured £67.1 million thanks to the French TV deal, the largest agreement made with UEFA.
In contrast, while Aston Villa secured their position in the top eight with a victory over Celtic, they have only garnered £58.8m to date. This is primarily because the Villa Park club has only claimed a £15.6m share of the market pot.
