Calcio e Finanza: Serie A 2024/25 season broadcast rights revenue: specific sharing of each team

The following are the revenue that each Serie A club will receive from TV broadcast rights in the 2024/25 season. Calcio e Finanza provides estimated data.

The 2024/25 season of Serie A has been settled, and Napoli, which won the fourth league championship in history, finally reached the top. But the significance of the final ranking is not only reflected in the competitive level, but also affects the economic level: the distribution of TV broadcasting rights income is divided according to team rankings (and a series of other factors).

So, how is this income distributed? How much can each club get from it?

2024/25 The distribution of income from Serie A television broadcasting rights

The distribution of income from Serie A television broadcasting rights is based on the clear provisions of the Melandri Act (later revised by Lotti Reform). According to the bill, the income obtained from the commercialization of the game is divided according to the following ratio:

50% are divided equally, and each team receives the same amount;

28% are allocated according to competitive results (of which 11.2% are related to last season ranking, 2.8% are related to last season points, 9.33% are related to performance in the last five seasons, and 4.67% are related to team historical results);

22% are based on social influence (of which 1.1% are related to young players' playing time, 12.54% are related to the number of live audiences in the past three years, and 8.36% are related to TV audience data).

Overall, Serie A will be allocated a net amount of approximately 900 million euros to each club in the 2024/25 season, which has excluded the "relegation compensation" and transfer funds to low-level leagues (data source: Calcio e Finanza estimate).

That is to say, the approximate distribution is as follows:

50% equally divided: about 450 million euros;

11.2% ranking by last season: about 100 million euros;

2.8% points by last season: about 25 million euros;

9.33% results by last five seasons: about 84 million euros;

4.67% results by historical score: about 42 million euros;

1.1% play time by young players: about 10 million euros;

12.54% Number of live audiences in the past three years: about 113 million euros;

8.36% viewership by TV audience: about 7,500 Ten thousand euros.

2024/25 Estimated TV broadcast rights revenue for each team in Serie A season

How much money can each team get? According to Calcio e Finanza's estimates, the distribution rankings are as follows:

At the top is Inter Milan, the only team with a revenue of more than 80 million euros; followed by Naples and AC Milan, both teams do not even exceed 70 million euros; Juventus ranked fourth, with about 67 million euros.

【Uguale: Score allocation amount; Ascolti: TV viewer ratings; Spettatori: Live viewer; Giovani: Youth player; Storia: Historical results; 5 anni: Results in the past five years; Classifica: League ranking; Punti: What is this uncertain parameter] The clubs at the end of the ranking are Parma, Empoli, Monza and Venice, and the broadcast revenue of these teams is less than 30 million euros.

Specifically, the top four earned more than €285 million (about 31% of the total), while the teams in the last five combined were less than €150 million.

This means the gap between the clubs with the highest and lowest income is about 3:1. By comparison, the Premier League’s total broadcast revenue is about four times that of Serie A (about 3.7 billion euros), but the gap between its highest and lowest income teams is only about 1.6:1, which is more balanced.
