The league has some of the wealthiest football clubs in the world, including Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, etc.

Clubs enjoyed broadcasting and merit payments available for the EPL teams, with over £2.5billion of central funds and prize money.

 

How Premier League small clubs benefit from the high prize money

 

The English Premier League average sides would benefit more from finishing even within the middle table.

As per the distribution pool, clubs within the average position at the end of the season receive at least £150-80 million pounds.

 

This is far way better than other European soccer leagues.

This revenue shares the total amount of money shared among the 20 participating clubs in the division during the season.

 

At least, smaller sides would be able to make some reasonable expenses in terms of player buys, payroll, and club-level other expenditures.
