In the context of the 'income rule,' the following clubs have been fined:

All offenders have already agreed to pay the imposed fines and have accepted restrictions on registering new players in the A list for the next season.
- The largest fine was handed to Chelsea, which must pay €20 million unconditionally and an additional €60 million in the event of a repeat violation.
- Next is Barcelona: a fixed €15 million fine and up to €45 million if future breaches occur.
- Completing the top three is French side Lyon, with a mandatory €12.5 million fine and a further €37.5 million for repeated infringements.
