Liverpool handed £3m by UEFA for letting their stars play in Euro 2016 as part of £130m payout... while even Swindon and Rochdale pocketed more than £3,000

UEFA has shared a record £32.8million of revenue from Euro 2016 with 60 English clubs, from the top flight to the eighth tier.

The money is a result of a deal between the governing body and the European Club Association to share the proceeds of international football with the teams who supply the talent.

In total, £128million was distributed between 641 European clubs from 54 national associations, with one third of that set aside for clubs who released players for the qualifiers and two thirds for those who sent players to last summer's tournament in France.
