For the second time in three years, the UEFA Champions League final will be an all-English affair, with the financial might of the Premier League and the backing of mega-rich owners helping clear the path to Istanbul for Chelsea and Manchester City.

They initially signed up for the breakaway Super League, along with the rest of England’s so-called ‘Big Six’, before withdrawing from the controversial plan.

That allowed Liverpool to collect 152.4 million pounds in prize money in 2018/19, the last full season before the pandemic. Even relegated Huddersfield Town picked up 96.6 million pounds, more than Bayern Munich got for winning the Bundesliga. According to analysts Deloitte’s Football Money League, the three top-earning clubs in the world last season were Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern, with Manchester United and Liverpool following on.However, 12 of the top 30 were Premier League clubs, with even Sheffield United earning more than AC Milan.

After losing to Manchester United in the 2008 final, the first between two English clubs, Chelsea won it in 2012. Chelsea was underperforming under Frank Lampard. Now they are supremely well-organised and the impact of top-class coaching is clear to see — they have kept 18 clean sheets in 24 matches under Tuchel, who took Paris Saint-Germain to last season’s final.
