The continental champion will pocket 16 million dollars while the runner-up will receive 6 million dollars

Applying the principle of “reinvesting in football what football generates”, Conmebol continues with its policy of increasing the prizes in all the competitions it organizes in 2022. And the main club tournament, which is the men’s Copa Libertadores de América, has been the main beneficiary.
In the final this coming Saturday the 29th in Guayaquil, Flamengo and Ath. Paranaense not only play the title but also a significant economic bonus. Conmebol has determined that the champion receives 16,000,000 million dollarsthat is, one million more than in the previous edition won by Palmeiras, precisely against Flamengo. The consolation prize for the runner-up will reach 6,000,000 dollars.The two finalists will also have a new source of income since Conmebol has decided that they will receive 50% of the net collection of the match, which will be played at the Monumental Stadium, in Guayaquil.
Like Flamengo and Ath. Paranaense began the competition in the group stage, the winner could accumulate up to 23,000,000 dollars in prizes throughout this edition of the Libertadores.
The winner of the Libertadores will qualify for the Recopa Sudamericana 2023 where he will face the Ecuadorian team of the Valley Independentwhich was imposed in the South American Cup 2022 after overcoming Sao Paulo in the end. The champion of the tournament will take home 1,600,000 million dollars and the runner-up $800,000.
