Real Madrid continues to set the standard in world football by consolidating itself as the club with the highest income during the 2023/24 season, breaking the historic $1 billion dollar barrier for the first time.

According to Deloitte’s annual study, the white entity generated $1,045 million euros, an increase of 25.8% compared to the previous season, when it reached $831.4 million euros.

This feat places the club chaired by Florentino Pérez at the top of the ranking, ahead of Manchester City (837.8 million euros) and Paris Saint-Germain (805.9 million euros), who complete the podium.

Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid, opposite stories

In contrast, FC Barcelona fell from fourth to sixth place, recording revenues of 760.3 million euros, below the 800.1 million of the previous season. This drop reflects the Catalan club’s loss of momentum in economic terms.

On the other hand, Atlético de Madrid experienced a notable rise, going from fifteenth to twelfth position.

With revenues of 409.5 million euros, the red and white club increased its turnover by 45.4 million compared to the previous year, standing out among the Spanish teams in economic growth.
