Slovenian football is experiencing a dream-like, truly historic period. First, Slovenia advanced to the knockout stages of a major tournament for the first time at Euro 2024, and now we celebrate having two clubs in the group stage of the Conference League. Never before have two clubs from Slovenia reached the autumn phase in Europe. The European qualifiers were also highly fruitful in terms of earning euros, distributed among the clubs by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).
The four Slovenian clubs collectively earned almost 10 million euros, specifically 9.715 million euros. The highest earner was Celje, which dreamt of the Champions League, chased the Europa League, and despite challenges, ultimately made it to the Conference League. Celje earned 3.87 million euros.
Next is Olimpija, which began its qualifiers in the second round and consequently played fewer matches. Despite this, the Dragons earned 3.695 million euros. In third place is Maribor, which secured 1.45 million euros, and the list concludes with Bravo, the only club that remained below the one-million-euro mark. Ljubljana’s Bravo, however, cannot complain, as considering the club’s structure and status, 700,000 euros is a very good earnings.
Celje and Olimpija, of course, are not done collecting UEFA money. In the group stage of the Conference League, each win will bring 400,000 euros, and each draw 133,000 euros. Advancing to the playoffs brings an additional 200,000 euros, and reaching the Round of 16 adds 800,000 euros.
