In financially difficulty, Lyon could collect a plump sum by eliminating Manchester United in the quarterfinals of the Europa League on Thursday.
Draded as a conservatory last November and prohibited recruitment at the winter transfer window, Olympique Lyonnais has been hit their fingers for its finances in the red. So inevitably, a beautiful route in the Europa League would help to absorb the holes. The Rhone club has already received almost 13.5 million euros thanks to its C3 performances, where it faces Manchester United in the quarter -finals return this Thursday (9 p.m.).
A qualification for the semi-finals would bring in an additional € 4.2 million to OL. The two clubs that will access the final will receive € 7 million in addition to UEFA, and € 6 million if they lift the Cup. If Lyon wins the Europa League, it will therefore receive more than 30 million euros in “prize money”, not to mention the income related to marketing and TV rights. He will have to make other efforts to satisfy the DNCG, the financial gendarme of French football, which had found a lack of € 175 million in Lyon finances.
A chasm between the Europa League and the Champions League
Contesting the Champions League would have arranged it well: each club present in the league phase had received € 18.6 million, more than OL will have reached the semi-finals of the Europa League. For comparison, PSG, qualified for the semi-finals, has already received € 73 million, and the total of the addition would be around 100 M € in the event of a final victory. Again, not to mention TV, astronomical rights in C1 compared to the C3.
