The end of another season has arrived, marked by its twists, turns, and controversy, as Manchester City secured their fourth consecutive triumph and the three clubs descend back to the Championship.
However, each of the 20 teams will have accumulated over £100 million in prize money for their efforts over the past 10 months, reaffirming the Premier League's status as football's financial powerhouse.
Projections have indicated that this season's earnings will closely resemble those of the previous one, indicating that Man City will rake in a sum of £170mil in addition to their achievements and trophies.

Each club receives nearly £80mil in equal share payments from global TV deals, plus an additional £10mil in commercial funds, per Yahoo Sports.
The clubs also receive a facility fee of approximately £900,000 for each match broadcast live on UK television.
