The figures are almost the same as last season, apart from small increases in the basic prize money for the semi-finalists and runners-up.
Teams going further than the group stages will receive €3 million for advancing to the round of 16, €3.3 million for reaching the quarter-finals and €4.2 million for a semi-final place. The winners will collect a further €9 million and the runners-up €5.6 million.
According to Reuters, last season a total €746.4 million was handed out among the Champions League participants. Last year’s winners Inter Milan received a total of €48.76 million, including €19.6 million from their share of TV money.
