Premier League ‘set for huge change to prize money split giving top clubs MORE cash’ days after Everton punishment
THE Premier League's "Big Six" are in line to receive an even bigger chunk of prize money, a report claims.
England's top flight operates on a system of 1.6:1 and Manchester City last season took £161.3million in prize money for winning the league.
The report claims from the 2025-26 season, Premier League prize money is set to be distributed via a 1.8:1 ratio.
It would pave the way for potentially tens of extra millions going to the league's biggest sides.

This comes just days after Everton were hit with a ten-point deduction for breaching Premier League profit and sustainability rules.
As a result, it plunged the Toffees into 19th and facing a relegation battle.
They could also face a further nine-point deduction if three clubs are successful in £300million worth of compensation claims.
Everton confirmed they will appeal the verdict in the strongest possible way.
