Chelsea collect £99 million from Premier League revenue

Chelsea were awarded almost £99 million by the Premier League as they claimed the title for the first time in five years.

Around a quarter of that cash came from prize money for finishing top of the table, but the largest amount came from overseas broadcast rights, with all 20 top-flight clubs receiving over £27.5m from that stream.

All clubs also received nearly £22m as an equal split of 50 percent of the domestic broadcast deal, with 25 percent of that going to prize money and the other 25 percent going to the facility fees a club receives when they are shown on television.

Chelsea's total share of £98,999,554 was just over £34m more than bottom earners QPR, who were handed £64,886,028.

Manchester United were the biggest earners from facility fees with their 27 live TV appearances bringing in just under £21.5m.

The smallest facility payments went to Stoke, West Brom, Leicester, Hull and Burnley, who earned about £8.8m for being televised 10 times each.

Central commercial revenue is also split equally between the clubs with each club receiving just under £4.5m.
