By contrast, Leicester City received £93.2m after finishing first in 2015-16, which is less than this year's bottom-placed side Sunderland earned (£93.5m). Second-placed Tottenham were given £145.5m, which is less than third and fourth placed Manchester City (£146.9m) and Liverpool (£146.1m) as their facilities fees - based on each time a club's matches are broadcast in the UK - were higher, while Manchester United's £141m topped the £139.6m Arsenal received despite finishing below them. The total is a combination of TV and commercial revenue, merit payments and facilities fees in addition to the equal share of £35m paid to all 20 sides. A total of £781.8m was paid in overseas TV revenue, with each team receiving £39m and a further £4.8m each from commercial deals. It has also been revealed that the three sides relegated from the top flight last season - Aston Villa, Norwich City and Newcastle United - were given £40.9m in parachute payments.</blockquote>
