Liverpool's potential claim against Man City
£63m
£16m of lost earnings plus £47m of interest, 4% of the £1.41bn total across all clubs.
What the claim is made of
- New Placement
- £35m
- Europa
- £28m
Built from 1 title step, 7 new placement steps, 1 Europa place, across 2010/11 to 2017/18.
Liverpool is reported to have issued a protective arbitration. The route is Premier League arbitration, not a class action.
The assumption behind this figure
City placed 12th (their 5-year pre-2008 average) in every season from 2009/10 to 2017/18, with interest at the 11.81% Burnley v Everton Precedent rate, compounded yearly to 1 October 2026. Every club below City's placed position moves up one place in each affected season, and inherits the prize money and Champions League or Europa places that come with it.
