Newcastle United handed FFP boost with Carabao Cup prize money but Premier League focus now clear

Newcastle United Newcastle EPL FFP Magpies Eddie Howe Manchester United Europa League UEFA Champions League Carabao Cup Final

Newcastle United's run to the Carabao Cup Final has handed them a Financial Fair Play boost. The Magpies will take home £50,000 in prize money for finishing runners up in the competition, with Manchester United taking home double that - £100,000.

The prize money itself is often considered insignificant in comparison to winning the FA Cup - with a prize fund of £2million. Both prize pots are massively eclipsed by the Premier League's TV revenue, awarded on final league position, and then Champions League qualification.

The Magpies have dropped down to fifth in the table with Tottenham Hotspur moving into the Champions League places. Eddie Howe and his side have two games in hand on Antonio Conte's outfit and are four points adrift is Spurs.
