At 3 am on May 22, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur kicked off the UEFA Cup final at the St. Mames Stadium in Bilbao. The three major European competitions in the 2024-25 season have reached the finals, with three teams including Tottenham, Manchester United and Chelsea, competing for the European League and European Union championships. Although the UEFA Cup prize is far less than that of the Champions League, it is also a considerable income. In the final of Manchester United vs Tottenham, the winner will receive a prize of 6 million euros and the right to participate in the European Super Cup (4 million prizes, another prize of 1 million to win the championship). Of course, the most important "reward" is that the Europa League champion can win a Champions League place.

In the 2024-25 season, 7 teams in the Premier League went to the European Championship. Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Villa participated in the Champions League; Manchester United and Tottenham played in the UEFA Cup, and Chelsea participated in the UEFA Champions League. What is the European prize money for the Premier League 7 teams? Let's take a inventory.

4 Champions League teams: Arsenal top 4, Villa top 8, Liverpool top 16, Manchester City missed the knockout round

Arsenal had the highest total prize, with 18.6 million participation fees, 63.8 million competitive bonuses, and 35.5 million value bonuses, totaling 118 million euros.

Liverpool ranks second, with participation fees of 18.6 million, competitive bonus of 38.3 million, and value-based bonus of 41.3 million, totaling 98.2 million.

Villa ranked third, with an participation fee of 18.6 million, a competitive bonus of 45.2 million, and a value-based bonus of 20.2 million, totaling 84 million.

Manchester City ranked 4th, with 18.6 million in participating prizes, 13.1 million in competitive prizes, and 44.5 million in value-based prizes, totaling 76.2 million.

Europa League 2: Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur

Europa League's participation fee is 4.3 million, Manchester United's competitive prize is 21.6 million, the value basic prize is 10.6 million, and the total prize is 36.4 million, ranking fifth among the 7th team in the Premier League.

Tottenham's Europa League participation fee is 4.3 million, competitive bonus is 21.3 million, and a basic bonus of 9.7 million, totaling 35.4 million, ranking 6th among the seventh team in the Premier League.

European Union: Chelsea

Chelsea reached the UEFA finals, with a participation fee of 3.2 million, a competitive bonus of 12.6 million, and a basic value bonus of 3.1 million, totaling 18.8 million.

From the comparison of the European competition revenue of the Premier League 7 teams, we can understand a fact: why participating in the Champions League is so important. Chelsea has been winning all the way in the European Union, but the European draw is only a fraction of Arsenal's. The UEFA Champions League final of Manchester United vs Tottenham is defined as the "100 million euro battle": the winner can enter the Champions League next season, guaranteeing a 70 million euro Champions League prize, and a 30 million euro ticket revenue!
