Price placed on Champions League glory for Liverpool

Liverpool will earn €83million if they win the Champions league this season.

According to football finance experts the Swiss Ramble, Jurgen Klopp’s men can enjoy another €17million on top of their current European earnings if they topple Roma and go on to win in Kiev.

Liverpool face Italian outfit Roma in the two-legged semi-final, but they have already banked €66million in revenue from UEFA.

And if they win the tournament outright they will receive €83million, and if they are losing finalists they will be handed a figure somewhere in between.

The below tweets explain just how UEFA divide up the revenue to the participating clubs, with teams that finish higher in the Premier League the year before earning slightly more from the first half of  the TV pool.

Chelsea earned €64m, Man City received €62m, Tottenham €60m and Man Utd were handed €39m this season from UEFA.

Bayern Munich face Real Madrid in the other semi-final, with the first legs later this month and the return legs in May.
