Manchester United have regained the top spot in the Deloitte rich list from Real Madrid with record revenue of £515.3m for the 2015-16 season. Having topped the Football Money League for 11 consecutive seasons, Real posted revenue of £463.8m to slip down to third behind Barcelona, despite winning the Champions League. Leicester City, the Premier League champions, are one of eight English clubs to feature in the top 20 having generated combined revenues of nearly £2.4bn. “The appearance of Leicester shows on-pitch success gives any Premier League team a chance of a position in the top 20. There is a strong chance that almost all Premier League clubs will be in the top 30 clubs next year.”
