Chelsea has landed just over £ 20 million for making the club World Cup final while they continue to enjoy the windfall that comes from the new FIFA tournament.
The blues saw Fluminense off on Tuesday evening and are now one match from lifting the trophy in the United States. The side of Enzo Maresca is back in the Champions League and they mix it now and beat some of the elite canties of the world.
In addition to the sporting merits thereof, the financial benefits, which are particularly useful for the West -Londers, are the amounts they have spent in recent years. Only for reaching the final, where they will play Real Madrid or PSG, did they book £ 22.1 million.
It means that their total prize money from the tournament has now risen to £ 33.5 million. That is before the participation costs, a figure that is assumed to be almost £ 28 million, which means that the Premier League side has a little more than £ 60 million from the Club World Cup.
That figure will greatly help their balance sheet in not complying with PSR instructions that previously resulted in points allowance. Already this summer the club has spent almost £ 200 million and they have to ensure that they have cash in the club.
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca said to Dazn: “It is a great achievement. It has been a fantastic season; top four in the Premier League, Conference League and now in the final of this competition – we are so happy. We know we have players who can do that and we know that we can do that in situations where they can do that”)
Pedro is their broadcast from the summer to date and joins Brighton in a £ 60 million deal. The Brazilian soon returned to repay that investment after he had become the 18th among their current owners in just over three years to sign for Chelsea.
The new man now enjoys the prospect to land his first piece of silverware. He said: “It would also be my first title. I think it will be a very important game, a very special game. I came a week ago and now I'm going to play a final.
“I am very happy. The team has welcomed me very much and now we have to go further. The other players did not let me make things, they just let me dance in the dressing room. I don't know if they will let me dance again because I got a man-of-the-match, but the group is very good, they helped me a lot and I feel comfortable here.”
