In advance of football clubs starting to publish their accounts for the 2021/22 season, I thought it might be helpful to share some 2-page financial overviews for each of the Premier League clubs for 2020/21, including a comparison against prior year and a 5-year graphical trend.
These overviews also include Premier League rankings for each of the main financial categories, e.g. which club had the highest profit, loss, revenue, wages, debt, transfer spend, etc in 2020/21.
One caveat with these figures is that revenue was significantly impacted by COVID in 2020/21 with match day reduced to almost zero, as games were played behind closed doors, while some broadcasting income was deferred from 2019/20 for matches played after the accounting close.

Review of Rangers' financial results for the 2023/24 season, when when they finished as runners-up in the SPFL Premiership for the third year in a row, were defeated in the Scottish Cup Final, but did win the League Cup. Also reached the Europa League last 16 #RangersFC Image
After two years of small losses, when they very nearly broke-even, Rangers lost £17m before tax, mainly because profit from player sales dropped from £24m to £6m #RangersFC Image
Image
Rangers' revenue rose £4.5m (5%) from £83.8m to a club record £88.3m, which means that this has grown by an impressive £35.1m (66%) in the last five years from £53.2m #RangersFC Image

Review of Manchester United's financial results for the 2023/24 season. As always, #MUFC are the first Premier League club to publish their accounts.

The period included official confirmation of the deal whereby Sir Jim Ratcliffe acquired a 27.7% stake in United. Image
On the plus side, revenue rose £14m (2%) from £648m to a new club record of £662m, while profit from player sales increased from £20m to £37m, United's best result for 15 years #MUFC
Image
Image
However, the pre-tax loss quadrupled, widening by £98m from £33m to £131m, the second worst in United’s history. Club has posted a loss 5 years in a row, compared to healthy profits in five of the six years up to 2018/19 #MUFC Image

A deep dive into this summer's transfer window, focusing on the Premier League, but also looking at the other major leagues. Image
Chelsea had the highest gross transfer spend in the Premier League for the third year in a row, i.e. ever since the Clearlake Capital crew arrived, with a hefty £265m.

Lowest gross spends were at Manchester City £25m and Liverpool £43m.
#CFC #MCFC #LFC Image
However, Chelsea once again had the highest player sales of £186m, followed by Aston Villa £172m and Manchester City £168m.

As Sunderland prepare for the new season, I took a look at the club's focus on sustainability. How close are they to achieving this and what are the implications for the performance on the pitch? #SAFC Image
The last available accounts from the 2022/23 season are now a full year out of date, but they still offer some indications of how well the strategy is working #SAFC
The bad news is that Sunderland have reported losses 17 years in a row, adding up to a hefty £272m. However, more positively, the club has drastically reduced the size of its losses, averaging less than £7m in the last four years, compared to £20m in the preceding decade #SAFC Image

A review of Ipswich Town's finances, as they return to the Premier League after 22 long years away. Focus is on the latest available accounts from 2022/23, but also has comparisons with Championship clubs and some estimates for the top flight #ITFC Image
Losses have been growing under the new owners, as they invested in the squad and infrastructure in an attempt to return Ipswich to former glories - which has clearly worked #ITFC Image
Even though they were in League One, 2022/23 was the first time that the club broke through the £20m revenue barrier since the last time that they were in the Premier League back in 2001/02 #ITFC Image

The number of clubs in the Champions League will increase from 32 to 36 with the group stage of 8 groups of 4 teams being replaced by a single league of 36 teams, then a new knockout round, before reverting to the traditional last 16.
Total revenue distribution will increase by 21% from €2.7 bln to €3.5 bln. Lion's share will go to the Champions League €2.5 bln, followed by Europa League €565m and Europa Conference €285m. Image
