The Europa League, UEFA’s second most prestigious club competition, is set for a grand final in 2024.
The grand final of the UEFA Europa League is approaching and this year promises to be really exciting. Two very strong teams will compete for the trophy. On one side is Atalanta, currently fifth in Serie A and aspiring to qualify for the next UEFA Champions League.
The Italians have performed brilliantly in this tournament, knocking out some strong teams, with Liverpool being a notable example. Their rivals are none other than unbeaten Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen, who are looking to cap off an excellent season with another title.
A prize money for champions
Apart from the glory and honor of becoming Europa League champions, the financial reward is another significant incentive. Although the winnings are not as substantial as in other competitions such as the UEFA Champions League, they are still significant amounts.
The runner-up in the tournament is guaranteed $5 million to advance to the finals, regardless of the outcome. On the other hand, the champion will receive a total of $9.34 million. This prize money adds another layer of motivation for the teams competing in the finals.
