The Deloitte Football Money League is one of those lists that every single season people sit up and pay close attention to.
Given the current financial situation across the globe, there is even more scrutiny on it this year as to how this is impacting the biggest clubs on the planet.
Deloitte have released their ‘Money League’ list for the 2019-20 season and only one club (Zenit St Petersburg) in the top 20 has seen revenue increase compared to 2018-19. One club.
Barcelona and Real Madrid hold on to the top two spots in the top 20 as they generated revenue of $858.7 million and $858.6 million respectively, as Barca just hung on to top spot. Bayern Munich moved up one place to third with $761.4 million.
In terms of the Premier League, Manchester United have slipped one place to fourth overall as they have revenues of $697 million and their bitter rivals Liverpool are catching them. The Reds moved up two places in the list to sit in fifth overall with $671 million, and that is the first time in almost 20 years that they’ve been in the top five.
