Chelsea's Champions League triumph will hit rivals in the hip pocket next season.
The London Evening Standard says the split of UEFA television money based on where each qualifying club finished in the Premier League will now be changed to reflect the fact Chelsea are in the group stage as champions.
Normally, as domestic champions Manchester City would get 40% of UEFA's 'market pool' pot of TV money totalling around £12million, second-placed Manchester United 30% (£9m) third-placed Arsenal 20% (£6m) and the fourth-placed club 10% (£3m).
Instead, City and Chelsea will each receive 30% (£9m), United 25% (£7.5m) and Arsenal 15% (£4.5m.)
UEFA said the figures would be confirmed by their executive meeting in July.
