How Much Money All 12 British Clubs Earned in Europe For 2024/25 Season
Premier League clubs achieved plenty in European competitions for the 2024/25 season. First of all, English teams did well enough in the coefficient to secure a fifth Champions League spot for 2025/26 – which will now go to Newcastle United – while three sides also made finals.
In the Europa League, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United met in the last round of the competition with Spurs coming out on top. Ange Postecoglou delivered on his promise to bring silverware in his second season, ending the club’s 17-year trophy drought.
Elsewhere, Chelsea became the second English club to win the Europa Conference League, after West Ham. Enzo Maresca’s men beat Real Betis 4-1 in the final, becoming the first club to win all three of Europe’s current major tournaments.
As such, plenty of money has been made in Europe this season across the three competitions. But how much exactly did each team make? Thanks to data from Football Insider and UEFA, the exact figures have now been revealed.
The New Saints, Larne & Hearts: Europa Conference League League Phase
Money Made: £2.93m, £2.93m, & £3.38m

The New Saints (Wales), Hearts (Scotland), and Larne (Northern Ireland all excited at the Europa Conference League League Phase. Just for making that stage, each team was awarded £2.6 million for their participation. Adding to that, any victory saw teams awarded a further £336,000, with a draw seeing the sides earn just under £112,000.
Both The New Saints and Larne won just one of their group games, losing the rest, so they finished with a total amount of £2.93m. Hearts managed to do a little better, winning two games and drawing another, taking their final winnings to £3.38m.
Rangers: Europa League Quarter-Final
Money Made: £17.7m

After making the Europa League final in 2022, Rangers were hoping to go even better this year. They had a solid run in Europe this season, making it to the Europa League quarter-final stage, but would not be able to go any further. The Scottish side ultimately crashed out to Spanish side Athletic Club (2-0 on aggregate).
This was enough to see them earn £17.7m across the competition, placing them as the eighth-highest earners from the tournament for 2024/25. They made an initial £3.63m just for qualifying and then continued to earn more based on their results throughout the tournament before their exit.
Chelsea: Europa Conference League Winner
Money Made: £22m

Despite being just one of two British teams to win European honours in 2024/25, the Blues have only made £22m after lifting the Europa Conference League. Despite going behind vs Betis, Chelsea roared back in the second half to score four unanswered goals. Enzo Fernandez levelled the game, with Nicolas Jackson, Moises Caicedo and Jadson Sancho also finding the back of the net – although Cole Palmer orchestrated it all.
The good news is that they can add to their income this summer at the Club World Cup. Indeed, Chelsea will compete at the tournament thanks to their 2021 Champions League triumph, with a potential $125 million (£93m) on offer for the winners.

Manchester United: Europa League Finalist
Money Made: £36.4m

It was a dismal season for Manchester United, who finished 15th in the Premier League having lost 18 games. The one ray of light, however, was their European form as they made it all the way to the Europa League final without losing any of their 14 games.
That unbeaten streak came to an end against familiar opposition, though, with Spurs picking up a 1-0 win in Bilbao, Spain. As such, the Red Devils only walked away with £36.4m. To make things worse, after failing to qualify for next season’s Champions League, Sir Jim Ratcliffe was forced to fork out a £10m penalty fee to sponsors Adidas.

Celtic: Champions League Play-off Round
Money Made: £39.7m

Despite only making it out of the Champions League league phase, Celtic still made more than Europa League finalists Manchester United. The Scottish giants would meet Bayern Munich in the play-off round, narrowly losing 3-2 aggregate with a 94th-minute winner from Alphonso Davies breaking Hoops’ hearts.
Celtic walked away with a total of £39.7m for their efforts, which makes them 25th on the list of 36 Champions League teams – with Slovan Bratislava’s fee of £18.78m being the lowest in the competition for 2024/25. The Bhoys made £15.7m just for getting to the tournament, and a further £1.8m for each of their three league phase wins, plus £1.8m for their three draws.
Tottenham Hotspur: Europa League Winner
Money Made: £45.4m

Tottenham Hotspur had an even worse domestic campaign than Man Utd, finishing 17th, on a pitiful 38 points, having lost 22 league games – only two fewer than the relegated Ipswich Town. However, their season ended in triumph.
Thanks to Brennan Johnson’s 42-minute effort, Spurs won their first major honour since 2008. It was a momentous moment, especially for captain Son Heung-min, who finally got his hands on a trophy for the first time in his career. Despite winning the competition, Tottenham still failed to make as much as any Champions League team.

Manchester City: Champions League Play-off Round
Money Made: £76.2m

Having won the Premier League in 2023/24, and the European treble the season before, big things were characteristically expected of Manchester City. However, it proved to be a turbulent season for Pep Guardiola’s men on all fronts.
For only the second season in his managerial career, Guardiola failed to win a trophy. They crashed out at the newly implemented Champions League play-off round, losing 6-3 on aggregate to Real Madrid across two legs. Consequently, they walked away with £76.2m.
Aston Villa: Champions League Quarter-Final
Money Made: £83.7m

It was an exciting campaign for Aston Villa as they made the Champions League, bringing first-tier European football to Villa Park for the first since since 1983. Unai Emery’s team had some big moments too, most notably beating Bayern Munich in the league phase.
They exceeded expectations, making it all the way the the quarter-finals before losing to Paris Saint-Germain. Although the club made £83.7m, the big concern will be their financial fallout after failing to qualify for next season’s Champions League, with a hugely controversial refereeing decision in the Premier League partly to blame.
Liverpool: Champions League Round of 16
Money Made: £98.1m

Liverpool enjoyed a brilliant domestic season, winning the Premier League for just the second time in the club’s history. Arne Slot’s men were also flying in Europe at one point, and looked favourites to claim the Champions League after ranking first in the league phase
The Reds won seven of eight games, losing just once – which helped boost their final £98.1m earnings – but were unfortunate to draw PSG in the Round of 16. The game went to penalties, and the French side came out on top thanks to the heroics – and clever tactics – of Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Arsenal Champions League Semi-Final
Money Made: £117m

Much like Liverpool, Arsenal also performed really well in the league phase, finishing third (level on 18 points with Barcelona in second and Inter Milan in fourth). The Gunners proceeded the thump PSV 9-3 across two legs in the next round, before giving Real Madrid a 5-1 pasting in the next round.
However, they would then become the fourth English club to fall victim to PSG’s quality in Europe this season (with Man City also beaten in the league phase), as they were dumped out of the competition at the semi-final stage. A 3-1 defeat across the two legs was enough to confirm another disappointment in a season of frustration for Mikel Arteta’s men. The one upside, though, is that Arsenal walk away with the biggest financial prize of all English teams, taking home a cool £117m for their efforts.
