Premier League prize money revealed: Even West Brom get £94m
The final figures given to Premier League clubs in prize money, TV fees and central commercial deals have been released, with Manchester United earning marginally more than Manchester City.
Both Manchester clubs earned a little under £150m, with all clubs receiving a minimum of £87.9m from TV deals alone.
That means West Brom received over £94m from the Premier League despite ending the season rock bottom of the division.
