Prize money is probably the most understandable way that Premier League clubs earn more money than lower league sides. With an estimated £800,000 given for each place, the winner of the Barclays Premier League scoops an impressive £16,000,000 to go with their title as champions of England. This is compared to the winner of the Championship, just one tier below, where the winner only takes £50,000 in prize money. This is then dropped to just £25,000 in League 1, and an estimated £26,000 in League 2. Then there’s qualification to continental competitions such as the Champions League to add to the equation, a competition where clubs receive roughly £15.7m television rights for competing, with prize money of £7.8m on offer to the winner.
