Arsenal have placed 11th for the third straight year in Deloitte's annual Money League with the north London club the third biggest money-making machine in the capital and sixth in the Premier League. The club posted a revenue of £324.5million, down 6% year-on-year, for the 2020-21 campaign despite having almost no matchday income.
The club had the 12th highest commercial income of £136.4million and made £184.4million in broadcast revenue, the 13th highest figure. Their wage to revenue ratio was around 75%, slightly below Chelsea and far higher than Tottenham Hotspur. Beyond the money the club has no women or minority ethnic representation on its board and it is a signatory of the UN Sports for Climate Action Framework, Deloitte said. Chief executive Vinai Venkatesham, who is British-Indian, is not on the board.
Not being involved in European competition this season may hurt their ranking next season but with Mikel Arteta's side well in the running for a Champions League return, their place among the super clubs does not appear under much risk.
