English Premier sides to get extra £7.5m

ENGLISH Premier League sides will each benefit by an extra £7.5million per season from the overseas television deals, club chairmen have been told.

The clubs have been told to expect between 7m and 8m per annum extra to add to the 12m they currently receive annually from overseas TV, sponsorship and licensing money. That will push the minimum each club can earn in TV cash and prize money alone from a season to 40m.
