The 19th edition of the Deloitte Football Money League which profiles the highest earning clubs in the world’s most popular sport, has been published.
Real Madrid topped the Money League for the eleventh consecutive year, having generated €577m (£439m) in the 2014/15 season, largely made possible by the growth in commercial revenue.
Arch rivals FC Barcelona having claimed 5 trophies last season, moved above Manchester United to claim the second spot, with an income of €560.8m (£426.6m).
Although Manchester United slipped to third, they remain the highest revenue-generating club in the Premier League, earning €519.5m (£395.2m).
A record nine Premier League clubs are ranked within this year’s top 20, one more than in last year’s edition. Premier League clubs now dominate the top 30, with 17 of those clubs having played in the Premier League during the 2014/15 season.
