Atalanta and Milan eliminated (like Juve): how much the two Lombardy teams cashed in the Champions League
Atalanta e Milan, la Champions League vi fa ricche: quanto hanno incassato i due club – SerieAnews
Champions League elimination for Atalanta still stings. A severe knockout against Brugge, the likes of which had almost never happened in Europe. The Orobici met in the Belgians everything that has always distinguished Gasperini’s team: organization of play, speed and competitive nastiness.
This time, however, perhaps Atalanta underestimated its opponent or simply is not going through a good physical moment. And so Brugge completed the miracle by putting their signature in the history book: never, in fact, had a Belgian team eliminated an Italian club in a Champions League knockout stage.
The first leg defeat — which also came in absurd fashion due to refereeing decisions — was followed by a heavy defeat on Tuesday. A knockout that also brought obvious internal aftershocks, with Gasperini lashing out at Lookman for the missed penalty – but the Nigerian had scored Atalanta’s goal – and the Nigerian striker’s response for a powder keg that forced the management to intervene with a confrontation scheduled today with all parties involved.
Atalanta, gli incassi in questa edizione della Champions League
Despite its premature elimination from the Champions League, Atalanta still collected a nice nest egg from a revenue standpoint in this event, which has been richer since the reform anyway. Let’s take a look, then, at how much the Bergamo lineup collected in the 10 competitions played, between the group stage and the play-offs.

The participation bonus was 18.62 million euros to which must be added the 8.2 million euros derived from the ranking bonus, one of the novelties of the new edition of the Champions League. Revenues, then, are assessed through “value,” designed by UEFA to amalgamate items involving historical and 10-year rankings as well as the market pool, in fact the value of the television rights market.
Here then is the division of revenues as far as Atalanta is concerned.
Participation bonus: 18.62 million
Ranking position: 8.23 million euros
European share: 20.18 million euros
Non-European share: 5.76 million euros
Results bonus: 10.5 million euros
Bonus 9th-16th place: 1 million euros
Playoff bonus: 1 million euros
TOTAL: 65.29 million euros.
In sum, Atalanta grossed just over 65 million euros, a remarkable amount for having played 10 competitions.
Quanto ha guadagnato il Milan in questa edizione della Champions League
In a disastrous play-off for the Italians, on the blackest Tuesday in recent national soccer history, Milan also abandoned the competition prematurely. The Rossoneri foundered against Feyenoord, with a 1-1 draw that leaves regret for an early lead thrown to the nettles, also the fault of the folly of Theo Hernandez, who was sent off for a second yellow card picked up for simulation.

For Milan, too, it looked like a round within reach against the Rotterdam outfit, which, moreover, was weakened in the winter precisely because of the sale of Gimenez who ended up in the Rossoneri and in goal. But how much did Milan gain in this event? The same argument made for Atalanta applies to the Rossoneri as well, parameters attached. Let’s see, then, how much the income amounted to in the coffers of the club of via Aldo Rossi.
Participation bonus: 18.62 million
Ranking position: 7.05 million euros
European share: 17.3 million euros
Non-European share: 4.16 million euros
Results bonus: 10.5 million euros
Bonus 9th-16th place: €1 million
Playoff bonus: 1 million euros
TOTAL: 59.63 million euros.
About six million euros less stemming from the different ranking position and European quota between the two clubs.
