Real Madrid top 2024 rich list as football’s wealthiest club
The latest ranking of the world's richest clubs, published by the BBC, highlights the financial powerhouses of the sport – though one debt-ridden giant’s inclusion has raised eyebrows.
Topping the 2024 list is Real Madrid, cementing its status as the sport’s financial juggernaut with an astonishing 1.046 billion euros ($1.13 billion) in revenue.
Manchester City follow with 838 million euros, while Paris Saint-Germain rounds out the top three at 806 million euros.
English clubs continue to dominate, with Manchester United (771 million euros), Liverpool (715 million euros), and Arsenal (717 million euros) all among the biggest earners.
However, the most surprising entry is Lyon, a club struggling with severe financial woes yet still generating 264 million euros, enough to make the top 20.
