Liverpool led English clubs in taking the lion's share of the 150 million euros ($162 million) compensation handed out by UEFA for freeing players for Euro 2016. Yet while 60 English clubs shared 38.2 million euros ($41.3 million), Icelandic clubs whose country humiliated England at the tournament got just 118,712 euros. Nearly all of their players are with foreign clubs.
Juventus and Liverpool each had 12 players at Euro 2016. The Italian club received 3.48 million euros and Liverpool 3.394 million - more than most of the 54 countries who tried to reach the finals.
Juventus had six players in the Italian squad but also the likes of Paul Pogba and Patrice Evra with France, Sami Khedira with Germany and players with Spain, Croatia and Switzerland.
Liverpool had James Milner, Adam Lallana, Nathaniel Clyne, Jordan Henderson and Daniel Sturridge in England's ill-fated squad. But also Joe Allen and Danny Ward with Wales, Simon Mignolet, Divock Origi and Christian Benteke with Belgium, Emre Can with Germany and Martin Skrtel leading Slovakia.
There was hardly a team at the finals or qualifying that did not have a player in one of the English leagues.
