UEFA Seeks Higher Revenues Amid Huge Gap Between Elite Champions League Clubs & Others

Originally posted on SempreInter.com  |  By Marko Vrakela  |  Last updated Oct 9, 2025 8:57 AM ET

UEFA is aiming to increase annual revenue from its club competitions, including the Champions League, by the 2027–2033 cycle.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the plan is to raise annual revenue from €2.9 billion to around €6 billion.

Moreover, this is UEFA’s attempt to address the growing financial disparity between Europe’s elite clubs and their smaller counterparts.

Indeed, the Champions League has particularly seen a significant concentration of wealth among top clubs.

UEFA Keen to Increase Champions League Revenues

This influx of revenue stems from UEFA’s coefficient-based distribution model.

Unfortunately for so-called ‘small’ clubs, this system rewards clubs based on their historical performance and marketability.

Meanwhile, in addition to financial redistribution, UEFA is exploring new broadcasting strategies to enhance revenue generation.

One such strategy involves partnering with global streaming platforms, such as Netflix or Amazon Prime Video.

Indeed, UEFA aims to allow these platforms to broadcast select Champions League matches.

As seasoned European campaigners, Inter Milan would likely benefit from these revenue-boosting measures.

Therefore, for clubs like Inter, this represents an opportunity to strengthen financial stability.
