Inter earn €10m more than Milan, Juventus and Atalanta in UCL bonuses

According to reports from Calcio e Finanza, all clubs who earned a bonus were paid by UEFA on Friday.

The bonuses paid by UEFA on Friday were specifically for teams who qualified for the play-off round and the round of 16. These bonuses come on top of the customary appearance fees and win bonuses.

Each of the teams who qualified for the play-off round, including Milan, Juventus and Atalanta, received payments of €1m from UEFA. Those who qualified for the round of 16, Inter among them, received bonuses of €11m.

Bologna did not qualify for the play-off round and were therefore not entitled to any further bonuses.

That means that the competing Italian sides earned a combined €14m by qualifying for the knock-outs, but 78.5% of that money was paid to Inter.

Having already qualified for the quarter-final, Inter will also be entitled to an additional bonus of €12.5m. €15m will be paid to the four semi-finalists and the eventual finalists will earn an additional €18.5m, with the winner earning €6.8m on top of that.
