Leicester City's 5,000-1 miracle Barclays Premier League title win made them globally famous but Arsenal are on top of the 2015-16 prize money table. Official figures released on Tuesday show the Gunners have pocketed almost £101million - or £100,952,257 to be precise - from the Premier League's central funds.
Manchester City were the second-highest earners, making £96,971,603, followed by Manchester United (£96.5m) and Tottenham (£95.2m), with Leicester in fifth place on £93.2m. The lowest earning club, Aston Villa, earned £66.6m, the biggest sum ever for a bottom-placed club.
The money comes primarily from the Premier League's huge TV deals but also includes a share of the league's central commercial income for each club. The accompanying table below breaks down the component parts for each club.
