CELTIC’s spoils for playing in the Europa League this season has been revealed and it’s money not to be sniffed at when it comes to a club in the Scottish Premier League.
Football Coefficient.Eu clock Celtic in at €9,498,522 and you can see the breakdown of the total below.
The €630k match payments are for three wins in the group stage. Astonishingly, Celtic won three games, amassing nine points and still didn’t make it through to the knockout phase.
It’s not been a vintage year in Europe for Celtic but nobody was expected it to be when we surveyed the damage done to our squad back in the summer. To land nine points was still a fantastic return for the Hoops.
The money, which amounts to around £8million will have helped Celtic facilitate their rebuild and further help Ange strengthen at the end of this season.
Celtic fans want the benchmark to be in Europe, but for this season, it’s all about the title race in Scotland. The bhoys sit three points ahead in the league with eight games still to play.
