Manchester United knocked off top spot by Real Madrid in 2019 Deloitte Football Money League
Real Madrid’s success on the pitch in the 2017-18 season — which included winning the Champions League —
saw them rake in record revenue of more than €750m, according to the latest Deloitte Football Money League.
Barcelona came in second on the list, ahead of Manchester United who fell from top spot in the 2016/17 edition to third in the latest rankings.
The combined revenue of Deloitte’s top 20 clubs hit a record €8.3 billion last season, more than double the figure from nearly a decade ago.
“Broadcast revenue remains the most prominent source of revenue for clubs with a 43% share, compared to 40% and 17% for commercial and matchday revenue respectively,” the report said.
