La Liga 2 prize money

La Liga 2 paid its 22 clubs £148m in 2024/25. Cádiz took £19,341,881 of it and Eldense £4,512,821, so the top of the division was paid 4.29x what the bottom of it was.

Spain sells its broadcast rights collectively and publishes what each club takes out of the sale, club by club, because the law that created the collective sale requires it. None of it is paid for finishing position: a club's share is set by a formula weighing what it has achieved over recent seasons and how large an audience it draws, alongside a share the whole division receives. Clubs recently down from the Primera are paid compensation on top of that share, which is why the three largest cheques belong to clubs that were in the top flight a season or two ago.

How the money is split

Every payment that makes up a La Liga 2 club's cheque

2024/25
PAYMENT HOW IT IS PAID DIVISION TOTAL
Audiovisual income the club's share of the collective sale of broadcast rights £120m
Relegation compensation paid to a club in its first seasons down from the Primera £28m
Statutory deductions the contributions the Royal Decree takes out of that share £11m
Paid to clubs broadcast share and relegation compensation together £148m

The deductions are charged against a club's broadcast share rather than paid on top of it, so the total is the income column with relegation compensation added.

Frequently asked questions

How much money does La Liga 2 pay its clubs?

£148,119,658 across the 22 clubs in 2024/25. Cádiz were paid the most, £19,341,881, and Eldense the least, £4,512,821. That figure is the club's share of the broadcast money plus, for clubs recently down from the Primera, their relegation compensation.

Why is the gap between La Liga 2 clubs so wide?

Because the money is not paid for finishing position. Spain splits the collective sale of its broadcast rights by a formula that weights what a club has achieved over recent seasons and how large its audience is, alongside a share every club receives. Clubs recently relegated from the Primera are paid compensation on top of that, which widens the division further. Cádiz were paid 4.29x what Eldense were in 2024/25, a spread of £14,829,060 across a single division.

What are the deductions?

Contributions the law takes out of a club's broadcast share before the club keeps it, set by the same decree that put the rights into a collective sale. They are charged against the income rather than paid on top of it, which is why the totals on this page are the income column. In 2024/25 they came to £10,777,778 across the division.

Which La Liga 2 club has been paid the most?

Espanyol, £57,444,445 across the 7 seasons on this page. 4 of the 47 clubs listed were in the division for all 7 of them; the rest were paid for the seasons they were present.

Does this include European prize money?

No. These are the central payments the league makes to its own clubs out of the sale of its broadcast rights. Money from the Champions League, the Europa League and the Conference League is paid by UEFA, and anything a club earns from the Copa del Rey is separate again.

Where do the figures come from?

LALIGA publishes the split club by club at the end of every season. 7 seasons are on this page: 2024/25, 2023/24, 2022/23, 2021/22, 2020/21, 2019/20 and 2018/19. The published figures are in euros and are shown here in pounds.

This page is the money coming in. For the money going out, see what La Liga 2 clubs pay their squads and the highest paid players in the division. Or look at how long each club's wage bill is tied down, this season's transfers, or every league we track. For what a club wins away from its own league, see Champions League prize money, Club World Cup prize money, Europa League prize money and Conference League prize money. For a league that publishes its formula rather than its payments, see Bundesliga prize money. For the knockout cups, see FA Cup prize money and Carabao Cup prize money. For what a relegated club is paid after it leaves, see Championship parachute payments. Where a league publishes the shares and not the payments, see Serie A prize money. Where a competition pays for where a team finished rather than for every round it won, see World Cup prize money.
