Florentino gives Real Madrid a massive revenue edge over Barça and Premier League, staggering figure

Real Madrid has led the revenue ranking with €1.06 billion, surpassing the Premier League and Barça

Real Madrid rules world soccer. The club presided over by Florentino Pérez has led the revenue ranking with a record figure: £906 million (€1.06 billion). No team in Europe comes close to those numbers.

The report reveals a striking fact. Neither the financial muscle of the Premier League nor the projects of PSG or Bayern can compete with Madrid.

White dominance against the power of the Premier

Manchester City follows Real Madrid with £726 million. PSG is third with £698 million. In the case of FC Barcelona, the blaugranas reach £659 million, almost £250 million less than their eternal rival. A huge gap that highlights the opposite management of both clubs.

Bar chart showing the highest revenues of football clubs worldwide, with Real Madrid leading at £906 million, followed by several Premier League teams such as Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea, and Newcastle, along with other European clubs like PSG, Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund, Atlético Madrid, AC Milan, and Inter Milan.

The top 10 is completed by Manchester United, Bayern, Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, and Chelsea. Among them, only Madrid breaks the Premier and PSG monopoly.

The English league places 14 teams among the 30 with the highest revenues. This fact confirms the strength of the richest championship. However, not even that collective dominance allows them to surpass Real Madrid at the top.

Florentino has managed to make the white club grow above all its rivals. Not only in Spain, where the gap with Barça is abysmal, but also on the global stage.

Florentino, the great architect of success

Madrid has known how to diversify its sources of income. Commercial agreements, international tours, the weight of the brand, and the new Bernabéu as a business engine are pillars of success.

In contrast, Barcelona drags a huge debt. Its revenues can't keep up with the pace of spending and the club falls far behind its main competitor.

The rest of LaLiga barely appears on the list. Atlético de Madrid totals £355 million, a figure far from the Premier level and much more from Madrid's.

The fact is clear: someone at Real Madrid is doing things very well. With Florentino at the helm, the club not only leads in sports but also in economics.

The difference with Barça and with the Premier giants is not just a matter of money. It's a show of management. For many, that hurts.
