Host of the Premier League champions was the world’s highest revenue-generating club in 2020/2021
London — Manchester City has topped the Deloitte Football Money League for the first time as the world’s highest revenue-generating club in a 2020/2021 season affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Abu Dhabi-owned City, with revenues of €644.9m and a number of sponsors linked to the owners, climbed six places. The club hosting the Premier League champions and current leaders is only the fourth to top the Money League after Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester United. European champions club Chelsea, now up for sale and with sanctions imposed on Russian billionaire owner Roman Abramovich after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, is eighth.
“The impact of Covid-19 is stark with the lack of fans in stadia unsurprisingly causing the lowest matchday revenue in the 25 years of the publication,” the report said. “Broadcast revenue is at a record high as a result of deferrals in distributions related to the delayed 2019/2020 season.”
