How Real Madrid became the richest club in the world

Los Blancos won La Liga last season before emerging with a record-breaking win in the Champions League when they beat Borussia Dortmund in the final.

Research by Deloitte Money League shows that Real Madrid are ahead of second-placed Manchester City with €208m.

The renovated Santiago Bernabeu, which now welcomes 80,000 supporters, brought in around €250m in revenue, which is roughly €10m per game.

“Completion of renovation works at the Bernabéu Stadium fueled matchday revenue growth to €248m in 2023/24, a 103% increase compared to the previous year,” read part of the report.

“The increase was mainly due to the sale of Private Seat Licences, which generated an increase of €76m, as well as the sale of new VIP seats and increased stadium capacity from December 2023. The club also reported a 20. % increase in revenue commercial (from €403m to €482m), driven by increased product and new financing arms.”

Manchester City leads England

In England, Manchester City remained the dominant force with a total revenue of 837 million Euros. The Citizens had an advantage over Real Madrid in advertising revenue, but were eclipsed in the commercial line where they are ranked fourth behind Madrid, Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

All six of England's top clubs are in the top ten here Chelsea being only 10th in the list. The Blues' non-participation in any European competition last season reduced their TV revenue as they failed to enter the top 10 in that category. Here's the table with the requested information:
