Four League of Ireland clubs land €156,000 bonus from Uefa Financial Fair Play

Four League of Ireland clubs are to benefit to the tune of €156,000 from Uefa’s policy of dispersing fines received from Financial Fair Play (FFP) breaches.

A number of high-profile clubs like Manchester City, PSG, Inter Milan and Roma have been hit with sanctions in recent years arising from the European governing body’s drive to curb overspending in the club game.

As a consequence, Derry City, Dundalk, Sligo Rovers, and St Patrick’s Athletic are to each receive €38,970 as they were Ireland’s European competition representatives during the 2014/15 season the fines were imposed for.
