KIEV, Ukraine (AP) — More European soccer clubs have been promised a greater share of UEFA's billions in commercial income from the European Championship and Champions League.

UEFA says around 580 clubs from across Europe's 53 soccer nations will collect from a promised $127 million fund from Euro 2012 profits.

UEFA also announced a 22-percent increase in Champions League revenue, to $1.7 billion for each of the next three seasons.

The Euro 2012 deal that pays clubs a daily rate for releasing players is now extended to include qualifying matches.

UEFA says $76 million will be distributed for the finals tournament, and $51 million among clubs represented in the 18-month qualification program.
