Manchester City have announced club-record revenues of £715million in their latest annual accounts, alongside profits of £73.8m.
City’s revenue has grown £2.3m since last year, while their profit is down slightly on the £80.4m they posted from the club’s treble-winning campaign, which was boosted significantly by prize money from winning the Champions League.
The report also highlights that City have made £405m in player sales over the past five years. That includes £139m for the current period — up until June 30 2024 — an increase on the £121.7m from the previous year. This, the club says, has driven the club’s profits.
Matchday revenue has also risen £3.7m to £75.6m, despite playing five fewer home matches compared to the treble-winning season.
