ETI-MAD REWARD
Man City set to rake in outrageous £300MILLION in prize money if they complete historic Treble.
MANCHESTER CITY will bank almost £300MILLION in prize money if they clinch the Treble.
Pep Guardiola’s men are just seven games away from completing the dream Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup haul.

A fifth Premier League crown in six years is likely to be worth around £164m, similar to the figure they landed last season.
SunSport revealed last month that a first Champions League trophy would earn the Etihad outfit £117.2m.
Guardiola’s side are favourites to reach the final next month following Tuesday’s 1-1 semi-final first-leg draw at Real Madrid.
And if City beat neighbours Manchester United in the FA Cup final at Wembley on June 3, that would see them trouser £3.9m — taking the total to a staggering £285.1m.
City have four league matches left, starting at Everton on Sunday and need nine more points to officially win the title.
Then Guardiola and his Treble-chasers will switch their attention back to Europe’s biggest prize for the return leg against Real on Wednesday.
Kelvin De Bryne's stunning second-half equaliser in the Bernabeu has given City a golden chance of making the Istanbul final.
The glitzy showpiece in Turkey is on June 10 — so the blue half of Manchester could already have two trophies in the cabinet and be looking to make it three.
Lifting an elusive first European Cup would guarantee them entry into the new-look Fifa Club World Cup in 2025 — which is worth an estimated £50m.
City’s group stage winnings this season, including the coefficient and initial prize money, saw them bank £69.6m.
As Premier League champions, Guardiola’s men also took a 40 per cent share of the initial £28.8m market pool fund.
Their victories in the last 16 and quarter-final have been worth a further £20.37m to the Abu Dhabi-owned club.
And reaching the final would see City taking £9.6m of the remaining half of the market pool — as they would have played 13 of the total 39 matches involving English teams.
Winning the European Cup in Istanbul next month would mean a further £17.63m, taking their potential total earnings to £117.2m.
City defender Manuel Akanji said: “We’ve been working all season long to be in a position like this.
“We just take it the way it is — be in the moment, think about the next action and be ready for it.”
