A total of 16 teams in England have received €879,500 (£780,000) from Uefa as part of the first club benefits programme in women’s football, which financially compensates clubs that had players who competed at last summer’s European Championship.

The biggest beneficiaries are Arsenal (€182,000), Manchester City (€180,500) and Chelsea (€163,500), with 11 of 12 Women’s Super League clubs compensated. Only Leicester among the top-flight teams did not have anyone competing at Euro 2022.
