It says the European football market is now worth some €25.5bn (£21.9bn). The English Premier League was the market leader, with record revenue of £4.5bn, as each of the 20 clubs set their own annual revenue record. In revenue terms, the Premier League is 86% larger than its nearest competitor, Spain's La Liga. Deloitte said the financial results of the 2016-17 football season reflected a new era of improved profitability and financial stability for European football clubs. "In addition, and for the first time ever, Premier League clubs' revenues have grown at a faster rate than wages over a 10-year period."
