8 hours agoWith one foot in the semifinal: This is the staggering amount Barcelona gets in case of qualifications away

(a year ago)Barcelona can seal its place in the semifinals of the Champions League this Tuesday. Flick's team comes with a considerable advantage after winning 4-0 that reached the first match. With the exception of a debakhli that no one expects, the Catalans will be in the semifinals, which Barca [...]
In addition to unequivocal sports success, the qualifications would constitute a significant financial impetus for the club, as the four teams that qualify in this round will each benefit from 15m euros. A sum that in Barcelona's case is already a benefit for financial balance because the team's annual budget includes reaching the quarterfinals. From there, all you get is profit.
This figure may increase further if the team reaches the final or wins the competition. In these cases, UEFA rewards 18.5 million to play in the finals and another six and a half million if the winner is eventually crowned champion. If that were the case, the club would have a 40m-euro profit from the Champions League.
At this point, Barcelona has already won 67 million from the League Champions this season: 18.6 million for participation in play-off; 13.3 for victories and comparisons; 9.6 for second place; 13 to qualify in the 16th and 12.5th phase to reach the quarterfinals. In view of the club's difficult financial situation, with a significant decrease in revenues, receiving this money is essential to balance books. /Periscopi/
