" The team that finishes top of the 20 clubs in the division will receive the highest merit payout of the Premier League's central payouts. Merit payouts are based on a sliding scale calculated by your league position, from 1st to 20th. The champions receive 20 times the basic merit payout, the club that finishes second 19 times, and so on, until the club that finishes bottom receives one time the merit payout ," the English league explains on its website.

In this order of ideas, taking into account the amount it receives for having finished first in the table, added to the equitable share it receives along with the other 19 teams in the competition, Liverpool received an amount of 57 million euros (274.505 million pesos) .
