London club, Arsenal is the biggest earner in the just completed 2015/16 season of the English Premier League, raking in £101.952 million. Second on the list is Manchester City at £96.972m, followed by Manchester United at £96.477m and Tottenham Hotspur with £95.222m. Leicester comes in fifth with £93.22m as it was chosen for live television broadcast in the UK. Fifty percent of UK broadcast revenue split is equally (£21.925m for each of the 20 clubs), with 25 percent paid in prize money based on league position and 25 percent allocated based on the number of times a club’s matches are broadcast in the UK. All international broadcast revenue is shared equally. Aston Villa, which finished bottom, received £1.242m in prize money and for each position up the league table the merit payment increases by that amount — Leicester received £24.848m for winning the title. Each club also gets £29.416m from the overseas broadcast deal and £4.509m from the central commercial contract. Villa earned £66.622m in total despite finishing bottom, with the other relegated clubs Norwich earning £67.117m and Newcastle £72.847m. Next season the new UK broadcast deal with Sky and BT kicks in, which sees a 71 percent increase in revenues. It means the team finishing bottom of the Premier League can expect to earn in the region of £100m. The Premier League also published the parachute payments paid to Championship clubs. Burnley, Hull City and Queens Park Rangers received £25.937m, while Cardiff City and Fulham were paid £20.803m with Blackburn Rovers, Bolton Wanderers, Reading, Wigan Athletic and Wolverhampton Wanderers on £10.535m. - See more at: http://greennews.ng/arsenal-tops-premier-league-earners-chart-with-101-9m/#sthash.SqDLVObZ.dpuf |
