The latest edition of the Deloitte Football Money League has been published and Real Madrid have made history, while Manchester United have also moved up a place on the list
Real Madrid have become the first club to surpass one billion Euros in revenue over a single season.
The Spanish giants are top of the big earners once again in the 28th edition of the Football Money League published by the Deloitte Sports Business Group.
Manchester City is the second biggest revenue generating club with £707,000 (Euros 838,000) while Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea are all in the top ten.
West Ham were 17th with £272,000 in revenue for 2023/24 while Newcastle were 15th, Aston Villa 18th in the figures which are made up fron earnings from matchday revenue, broadcast deals and commercial.
Tim Bridge, lead partner in the Deloitte Sports Business Group, said: “Money League clubs continue to break records with ongoing growth in commercial and matchday revenues.
“While on-pitch performance is critical for teams to reach the top echelons of the rankings, high performing clubs are also able to diversify the way they generate revenue through unlocking innovative partnerships and developing the land and stadium space that they own or operate.
“While commercial revenue dominates the income of the top ten Money League clubs, broadcast income remains crucial for teams in the second half of the rankings.
“As competitions expand and create more broadcast and matchday opportunities, these can further increase the earning potential for clubs.
“At a time where there is more demand than ever for a greater number of matchdays, this must be balanced with player welfare, as they ultimately bring the on-field success that can earn clubs many further rewards off-field.”
