1.044 billion euros! Foreign media ranked last season s club revenue list, Bayern beat Barcelona, Manchester City ranked fifth

As we all know, money-making ability has always been an important criterion for measuring the influence of football clubs. Just now, foreign media have counted a list of the revenue rankings of the five major league clubs in the 2024-25 season. Among them, the first place is La Liga giants Real Madrid, whose revenue reached an astonishing 1.044 billion euros last season. This number is ahead of other giants in football and also shows Real Madrid's current top influence and commercial value.

Real Madrid has been ranked first in the club's revenue rankings in recent years, mainly because the team's competitive performance has maintained very good in recent seasons. With the team's top-level commercial operation capabilities, Real Madrid's revenue on game day, various broadcast sharing, or sponsorship revenue are very high. It can be said that even if these fields are divided, Real Madrid can easily win the first place in all aspects. This is the key to their ability to break the football record and become the first club with a commercial revenue of over 1 billion euros.

Even if Real Madrid did not lose all four titles last season, but won 1 to 2 championships, their overall revenue is hopeful that they can exceed 1.1 billion euros, and we look forward to their performance next season. Ranked second is Bundesliga team Bayern Munich, whose combined revenue reached 861 million euros last season. As the top giant club in the Bundesliga, Bayern has been doing well in business operations in recent seasons. The main gap between them and Real Madrid is that Bayern is not a Spanish-language team. This makes their social media exposure and global comprehensive influence inferior to Real Madrid, and the actual impact is that their sponsorship income is nearly half lower than Real Madrid. At the fan level, Bayern fans are one of the most sticky fans in European football. Their game-day revenue and the team's daily sales are firmly ranked among the top 2 in Europe. From this point of view, Bayern still suffered losses from the German team. But even so, it is not easy for them to be ranked second with this number. Ranked third is La Liga giants Barcelona, whose overall revenue reached 822 million euros last season.

After several seasons of lows, the Red and Blues finally adjusted last season. The team has a very good main lineup and has won the domestic championship. More importantly, their overall strength is now firmly in the top three in the Champions League level, which makes fans look forward to their performance this season. In fact, before the epidemic began, Barcelona was the team in football with the most promising revenue exceeding 1 billion euros in the season. Unfortunately, they are only one step away. Now their title has been taken away by Real Madrid.

ranked fourth with the French Ligue 1 team Paris Saint-Germain, which won 766 million euros last season. With their outstanding overall results last season, Paris Saint-Germain has experienced a significant improvement in bonus sharing, which has made them jump to the top 5 in football. Moreover, the audience of Paris Saint-Germain is different from traditional giants. The team's pursuit of trends and youthful labels has attracted a large number of young fans, which will gradually accumulate as the club's foundation in the future. From this point of view, it is only a matter of time before Paris Saint-Germain will become a first-tier family from a new giant.

ranked fifth by Premier League giants Manchester City, who made 744 million euros last season. Manchester City's commercial value has increased very quickly in recent seasons, after all, their overall performance is excellent. Both the Premier League and the Champions League are very competitive, so even though they fell into a trough in the middle of last season, their huge commercial value still makes them ranked in the top five. For Manchester City, after adjustments in the offseason, I wonder if their hard strength has rebounded in the new season. What do you think about this football income ranking?
