The Premier League is headed for an exciting season finale, with both the championship and relegation battles still unresolved, and significant financial stakes still in play for every team.

Manchester City  competing with Arsenal and Liverpool for their fourth consecutive Premier League title, secured a record £176.2 million as champions last season.

The record amount received by Manchester City came from the League’s distribution of money from domestic and international TV rights deals.

Each of the 20 Premier League clubs gets a total amount that includes a fixed equal share payment, a merit payment determined by their final league position, a fixed commercial revenue payment, and a variable facility fees payment, which is allocated based on the number of times a team’s matches are broadcast live in the UK.

But what is the financial value of each position in the Premier League standings? Here’s all the information you need.

What is the monetary value of each position in the Premier League?

Premier League merit payments decrease incrementally from first place to 20th place.

Clubs receive a predetermined sum from the Premier League’s domestic and international broadcasting agreements.

From the prize money allocation for the 2022/23 season, Manchester City earned £62.3 million for securing the first-place finish.

Each position in the League is valued at around £3.1 million.

Southampton, after ending their ten-year tenure in the top flight at the bottom of the league last season, received £3.1 million for finishing in last place.

What other forms of prize money are available?

Another key component of the prize money are the facility fees, which depend on the number of times each team is broadcast on TV over the season.

Manchester City led the way in facility fees payments, earning £25.3 million from their televised matches in the UK last season.

Notably, despite finishing 17th in the league, Everton received £19.4 million in facility fees, the eighth highest in the  Premier League last season.
