After successfully winning the Premier League title this season, Manchester City became the first team in the history of the Premier League to win four consecutive league titles. This is an epic achievement, but the good news goes far beyond it. Just now, the Times Sports News, a foreign media, made statistics on the amount of bonuses Manchester City won this season. In terms of income, Manchester City has made a lot of money this season.
Generally speaking, winning the league championship will bring extra bonus income to the winning club. This season, Manchester City's championship prize reached 72.7 million euros, which is far more than other teams in the Premier League. And because Manchester City has won the fourth consecutive Premier League title, their bonus share ratio will be appropriately increased next season. In addition, Manchester City also scored a lot in this season's Premier League broadcast. 25 of their 38 league matches have been broadcast by British television, and Manchester City can receive a prize of 1.4 million euros for each broadcast match. And each team has a basic bonus of 7 million euros.
So Manchester City earned 42 million euros in broadcast sharing, but this figure is only the fifth among all teams in the Premier League. Because most of the matches of Manchester City this season are not suspense, and the focus of the early and mid season is on Liverpool and Arsenal, the corresponding broadcast distribution of Manchester City is not so exaggerated. However, their overseas broadcast sharing income is relatively high, and the team can get 73 million euros from it this season. This figure ranks first in the Premier League.
At the same time, in addition to the bonus and share income obtained in domestic competitions, Manchester City also earned considerable income in the Champions League this season. This season they earned 86 million euros in the Champions League, ranking seventh among all the teams participating. However, although the income figure is considerable, it is still a step backwards for Manchester City. Because normally, if the team can reach the last four or the final, the number will exceed 100 million euros. They won the Champions League last season and finally earned 110 million euros in the Champions League, 24 million euros less this season.
In addition, Manchester City also saw a decline in the distribution of broadcast coefficient, which was the result of their unexpected stop from the top eight. According to the statistics of the Times Sports News, the total income of Manchester City this season can reach 273.7 million euros, which is an astonishing figure. If Manchester City's performance in the Champions League this season could be slightly improved, their total income would exceed 300 million euros, but it is a pity that they failed to do so. Of course, for Manchester City, the results of this season can generally meet their expectations. The Premier League continues to ensure its dominance. At the same time, although it unexpectedly stops in the top eight of the Champions League, this is the most difficult event at the club level.
It is unrealistic to want to play more than the top four every season. Even for a top team like Manchester City, it is unrealistic to want to win the championship for two consecutive seasons. The team needs to go to the Champions League after the next adjustment. At the same time, Manchester City will also use their working capital to carry out a new round of recruitment this summer. Coach Pep Guardiola still has doubts about the team's lineup. He believes that there are still shortcomings in individual positions, and Manchester City will continue to recruit in the future. Considering their financial situation is very healthy, for Manchester City, the 273.7 million off court income this season has made their books richer.
And their transfer budget this summer is believed to be greatly improved. For a solid lineup, the introduction of several top stars will make their lineup perfect. In your opinion, what kind of recruitment plan will Manchester City carry out this summer? Welcome to discuss in the comment area.
