The financial gap between the two clubs is therefore relatively small, but the prize money adds to the considerable revenue PSG have already generated through their European performances. For the French champions, the evening was doubly rewarding: another European trophy on the sporting front and several more millions added to the club’s income.
Beyond the money itself, the victory further underlines PSG’s growing consistency on the biggest European stages. Paris left Salzburg with the trophy in hand and a €5 million cheque to go with it.
