​Leicester want Tottenham victory to increase prize-money

According to Leicester Mercury, Leicester City are aiming for victory over Tottenham on the last day of the Premier League campaign to earn more prizemoney.

The Foxes are currently ninth in the table, following Wednesday's 3-1 win over Arsenal, but a triumph against another London club would see them leap over Everton in eighth and earn additional £2 million.

Leicester have secured a £24m of a total of the £420m Premier League prize fund already, but it's a negligible amount compared to City's expected income from the television deals of over £125m.
