Manchester City have claimed the top spot in the Deloitte Money League for the 2020/21 campaign, with five Premier League sides making up the top 10 and others featuring further down the table.
Despite spending big over the summer – namely on Jack Grealish from Aston Villa – the Etihad Stadium outfit became only the fourth club to ever top the Money League, which profiles the performance of the ‘highest revenue generating clubs in world football’. The campaign is the first to be impacted entirely from start to finish by Covid.
City finished the campaign with a revenue of £541.1million, which is double what some of the clubs in the lower end of the table earned. Pep Guardiola’s side enjoyed plenty of success in the Premier League and their solid campaigns in cup competitions will have bolstered their funds as well.
