Our CL income gets a big boost from finishing 2nd last season, in this years revenue.....and even bigger next year after we win the league.
The TV money is split: 40% 30% 20% 10%
That's just one part of the CL market pool money. You then have an amount which is dependent on how far you progress relative to the rest of the sides from your nation It's very difficult to be too accurate right now as there are loads of different permutations as all 4 PL sides are still in the competition but as a very very rough guide, if we make the semi this season our overall CL money will be around the same as when we won it last season. Winning the CL could potentially be worth £20m or so more than last season.
Where we will have benefitted most is the £8m or so we've made from the Super Cup and World Club Cup and the new PL tv deal which kicked in this season. Although domestic rights dropped slightly, overseas rights more than made up for it and more importantly, the PL agreed a new distribution method for overseas rights. £3.3bn (the value of the previous overseas deal) will continue to be split equally but the additional £1bn will now be distributed based on League position. Nick Harris estimated that we stand to make approx £177m from PL money if we win the League this season, an increase of £25m on last season.
..our investment in digital, which Deloitte say will underpin new commercial deals there is further potential.
We're already seeing the benefit of this. The most noteable thing from this report has been our broadcast revenue. Our CL win and taking home more PL money than anybody last season (2nd place finish was offset by a greater number of televised games than City) meant that our broadcasting revenue was always going to be huge but it's been even greater than expected. From PL and CL prize money we made approx £250m but total broadcast revenue was just shy of £264m. Despite no meaningful progress in either domestic Cup, we made around £14m from other broadcasting revenue. To put that into context, I don't think we made even £4m the season before last.
