According to Football.london, Tottenham have learned how much they will earn from the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League. Spurs will get €2.94m for participating while the more they win and the further they go, they will keep adding to that. Winning the competition will earn then a total of €15m.

Tottenham find themselves in new territory with the Europa Conference League. UEFA introduced the new competition which will be the third tier of the continental competitions after the Champions League and Europa League. A dismal seventh-place finish last season by Spurs meant that they will be participating in the competition.

Spurs have made it through the play-offs against Portuguese side Pacos de Ferreira. That means a participation prize of €2.94m is in the bag. As the group stage commences from Thursday, Spurs can earn €500,000 for every win and €166,000 for every draw. Qualifying to the knockouts will be worth €600,000 more (h/t Football.london).

Progression to the quarters will get them €1m, semis €2m and finals €3m. Winning the competition will earn them an extra €2m. The prize pot is €15m which is significantly less than the €89m in the Champions League. Spurs will also get a share of the €23.5m broadcasting revenue. That is about 6.7% of UEFA’s commercial revenue of €3.5bn (h/t Football.london).

It’s not really the position Spurs wanted to be in as those are not huge prize amounts. But the club cannot complain as they ended up here because of themselves. The only thing they can do is play to the best of their abilities and try to progress as far as they can.
