Second edition of the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia, third in the format ‘Final Four’. Last year it was not played in this country because the situation of the pandemic did not allow to host spectators in the Saudi stadiums, which modified the agreement between the RFEF and the Arab country. The RFEF signed an agreement with Saudi Arabia in 2019 to hold three editions of the Super Cup in the Persian Gulf. The original document signed by the RFEF with Saudi Arabia supposed income of 120 million euros, half of them to be distributed among the participating clubs, but not in the same proportion. A confidentiality agreement between the parties prevents disclosure of the exact figures that the clubs and the Federation will enter and the specific distribution of the amounts. Now, with the return to Saudi Arabia, the agreement has been extended for four more seasons until 2029. Again there is no official income figure, but, according to sources consulted by AS, the Middle Eastern country pays this year about 40 million euros, of which 20 will go to grassroots football and the other 20 to Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atlético and Athletic.

Assuming that there is no official figure from the RFEF or the Saudi government, what the clubs do not deny is that, at least, Real Madrid and Barça will earn € 12.5M respectively, Atlético € 4.5M and Athletic € 2.5M. We insist, the figures are not fixed or official, because there are a variety of confidential concepts, by which the teams enter money: beyond the sporting merits or the title itself, such as the value and potential of the brand or television weight. of each team. Neither Saudi Arabia nor the RFEF have offered transparent information regarding the economic figures.

Of the approximate 40 million that the RFEF enters through the Super Cup, 20 of them are distributed entirely for grassroots football and regional football. According to calculations of Antón Meana in the SER, a 1st RFEF club, the third category of Spanish football, earns approximately 145,000 euros a year, that is, 325% more than what he won before the Spanish Super Cup was played in Arabia. On your side, a 2nd RFEF club earns about 55,000 euros a year, which is 550% more than what it received before.
