Arsenal have been better than every other team in the Champions League this season.

The Gunners have played six games in the competition so far and have won every one of them. They have picked up impressive wins against top clubs like Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao.

Of the 108 teams involved in Europe this season, only Arsenal boast a 100 per cent win record, and they are deservedly on top of the table as a result.

But how has the success on the pitch helped financially?

Arsenal’s prize money in the Champions League so far

The Champions League is one of the most lucrative sporting competitions in the world, and the clubs that do well take home a lot of money.

In terms of just results this season, Arsenal have earned more prize money than any other club, as per the Swiss Ramble.

Thanks to their six wins from their first six games, the Gunners have pocketed €35.5 million (£31.1m), which includes €11 million (£9.6m) for qualifying for the last 16.

In the competition as a whole, however, Arsenal rank third among English clubs for most money earned, behind Manchester City and Liverpool.

That is because the two rival clubs have a higher value pillar. That guarantees €45.4 million (£39.8m) for City and €42.5 million (£37.3m) for Arne Slot’s side. Even Chelsea earn a higher guaranteed figure – €39.9 million (£35m) – compared to Arsenal’s €37 million (£32.5m).

For that reason, Manchester City have earned the most money out of all English clubs in the Champions League this season, pocketing €95.5 million (£83.8m) so far.

Mikel Arteta’s side rank second with earnings of €92.2 million (£80.9m).

How much prize money did Arsenal earn in the 2024/25 Champions League season?

Arsenal were one of the best teams in the Champions League last season.

The Gunners made it into the semi-finals of the competition and were only beaten by the eventual winners, Paris Saint-Germain.

Over the course of the campaign, reports claimed that Arsenal earned roughly £97 million from UEFA for their exploits in the Champions League last term before factoring in gate receipts and commercial revenues.

It is almost certain that the Gunners will make a lot more than that in this campaign.
