Only Real Madrid advance to the 1/8 finals of the Champions League of the four Spanish teams that took part in the group stage of the main club tournament in Europe. Barcelona, Atlético Madrid and Sevilla were eliminated from the playoffs, one game day before the end of the first stage.
This fact favors the Merenches, who will put several million euros into their treasury. Real Madrid are expected to put more money into their coffers than the market pool allocated by UEFA to teams in each country, according to the newspaper Marca.
After the exclusion of three Spanish teams, Real Madrid will receive an additional 8.6 million euros. This amount could reach 11.7 million if Carlo Ancelotti’s team reaches the final.
About 4 million euros came to the treasury of Real Madrid from group matches. Last year, the Spanish trophy-winning club earned €116m, of which €16.8m came from the market pool.
