How Do Club Owners Make Their Money? by Moura7(m): 4:14pm On Mar 06, 2022
We've all heard enormous amounts being paid to athlete which now makes one wonder how the rich the owners of the teams these athletes play for, are.
For example, NBA superstar, Steph Curry earns around $45m per year. Real madrid has or is to offer Mbappe a deal worth over £46m(salary) per year, that's over £800k a week. So for these team owners to be churning millions every week in wages, it means they even receive way more but how?
Please share your informed takes on this.

Clubs have stadiums...stadiums sell ticket per match...

For example real Madrid’s Santiago Bernabéu Stadium has a capacity of 81,044

Tickets can cost $82 for cheap tickets while to premium or vip tickets can be as high as $175 to $260. Donthe maths...ticket is just one revenue source

The rest include:
Stadium Rentals and Tours
Merchandise Sales
Sponsorship Deals
T shirt sales
Transfer Market
TV Broadcasting Deals
Prize Money for winning tournaments

Omo!....e no still clear. I understand your points though, especially TV rights, tickets and sponsorship deals but still guy, it's not still enough for the amount these guys spend. Say tv rights for example, the epl give to sky sports and bt sports which in total might be around £5bn and then only 50% of this money is shared among the 20 clubs, that's around £125m per club. Clubs like many, manCity normally spend more than that in a single summer transfer window. Ticket sales might do the trick but even if it's a 90000 capacity stadium and its filled to the brim every home game (which isn't likely except maybe a final game) and tix price averages around £100, that's £9m and I think is also involved too, maybe £9m can cover the salary of all players in psg or madrid, about 30 of them. I heard of 30% of jerseys sold go to the club, 70% goes to the makers like Nike, Adidas and co. I don't know if some teams are listed but if they are then maybe that can help too.

The money made by the so call big teams is much, like very plenty eg the advertisement that brands want to be associated with the clubs as far as they have athletes that has that star power to bring businesses for them and the club been associated with has that success that brings Porpularity. Let's use Man UTD as acase study yes the success on the field is not there but off the field you have a successful brand that companies will pay top dollar to be associated with them, imagine someone with 300mil followers playing for United? Just posting about a brand reaches 300m people so united will pay him much because to whom much is given several more is required.
