Premier League's Richest Clubs This Season: How Much Is YOUR Side Worth?

With the new Premier League television deal set to bring in a whopping £5.136billion, the self-proclaimed 'best league in the world' is in rude financial health. Throw in some eye-wateringly large sponsorship and kit deals, plus other commercial activities from across the globe and teams in the top flight of English football have never had it so good. But which Premier League side is worth the most?




A study by website Sporting  Intelligence revealed just how much each of this season's 10 richest sides are worth, delving deeper than the usual balance sheet to use set of financial criteria including total revenue, assets, stadium capacity and wage ratio.
Using these thorough workings, here's how much each side is worth:


10. West Ham - £215million
Although the Hammers will benefit from the move to the Olympic Stadium next season, their balance sheet has taken a hit from the sale of the Boleyn Ground which was a prized asset. That said, they should benefit from increased matchday revenue once they complete their move to Stratford.


9. Everton - £216million
The Toffees turned in a tidy profit of £28million in 2014, but their ongoing quest to land a new stadium is preventing them from moving up to the next level as questions over Bill Kenwright's lack of investment remain from the Everton fans.


8. Newcastle - £221million
A large, one-club city that has the Premier League's fifth-richest owner in Mike Ashley - although he has failed to stump up the cash to let his side kick-on. St James' Park continues to sell out, despite regular protests against Ashley's ownership - will the fans finally lose patience?


7. Southampton - £259million
Markus Liebherr got Saints back on their feet after taking over the club in 2009 and his daughter Katharina has kept the club ticking over in excellent financial shape. A combination of shrewd work in the transfer market plus the club's academy bearing fruit has seen success on and off the field, with the south coast side making a £31million last year.


6. Liverpool - £537million
Let down by their existing infrastructure, Liverpool are looking to increase matchday revenue by expanding the Main Stand at Anfield, which will help them bridge the gap to Arsenal and Manchester United. A return to the Champions League would also help.


5. Tottenham - £710million
Tottenham will be quids in when they complete work on their new stadium in 2018 and will be able to boast of having London's biggest club stadium when capacity is swelled to 61,000. They will also then benefit financially from their ten-year agreement with the NFL, which will them host at least two games a season.


4. Chelsea - £826million
As in Liverpool's case, their matchday revenue is limited by their stadium, but the Blues have London property prices to contend with if they are to redevelop Stamford Bridge. A record sponsorship deal with Yokohama has helped see the club's value increase by more than a third over the previous two seasons.



3. Manchester City - £907million 
They easily have the richest owner - with Shekh Mansour worth almost four times as much as Roman Abramovich - but don't crack the top two according to Sporting Intelligence's criteria. This is largely down to their stadium being owned by the local council and the possibly - albeit diminished - of Financial Fair Play sanctions. Their new £200million training complex is an excellent asset and have not had to invest the kinds of sums into their stadiums that Chelsea and Tottenham have.


2. Arsenal - £1,118million
Wengernomics have transformed Arsenal into a model club, financially speaking. While the Gunners boss is criticised by some frustrated fans for his prudent control of the chequebook, he has personally overseen the construction and finance of the Emirates Stadium, which plays to large gates and brings in huge corporate revenues every game to leave the Gunners profitable and cash rich.


1. Manchester United - £1,848million
It's not a great surprise that the commercial behemoth that is Manchester United are top of this list. One of the biggest clubs in the world, the Red Devils can boast of the largest shirt sponsorship (£47million from Chevrolet per season) and kit deals (a cool three-quarters of a billion pounds over ten years) on the planet and play in the biggest club stadium in the country
