The Deloitte study on clubs that generated the most revenue places Juventus at 11th spot with €432 million, AC Milan at 13th with €385 million, and Inter Milan at 14th with €379 million. There is also a new entry, Napoli, ranked 19th with €267 million.
Italian football’s big teams are growing, but they’re still far from the top in Europe, especially in terms of finances. This comes from the 27th Football Money League, a study by Deloitte that lists the top 20 clubs with the highest global revenues for the 2022-23 season. Juventus, the leading Italian club, is only in 11th place. They maintain their position from the previous season but see an 8% increase in revenues, reaching €432 million euros.
AC Milan is on a strong upward trend, moving from 16th to 13th place with a significant 50% increase, totaling €385 million euros. Inter Milan stays put at 14th place with €379 million euros, showing a 23% increase. Napoli is one of the three new entries in this special ranking, securing the 19th position with €267 million, marking a substantial 71% increase. This places them ahead of another new entry, Olympique Marseille, which closes the top 20.
THE RANKINGS
Real Madrid tops the Money League rankings for the first time since 2018 with record revenues of 831 million euros, an increase of 118 million euros from the previous year. Manchester City follows closely with 825 million, and PSG narrowly precedes Barcelona (801 to 800) on the podium. Barcelona has climbed three positions, while PSG has moved up two. The top ten also include Manchester United (745), Bayern Munich (744), Liverpool (682), Tottenham (631), Chelsea (589), and Arsenal (532).

Completing the picture are Newcastle (17th at 287 million) and West Ham (18th at 275 million). Leicester, Leeds United, and Everton have dropped out of the rankings, confirming that on-field performances significantly impact financial aspects.
