After three years outside the top 20, Newcastle return to the list, largely owing to their strong performance in the Premier League, which saw them receive €8.5m (15%) more in broadcasting revenue. Strong home gates averaging over 50,000 are also a major reason the Magpies have pushed back into the top 20, while an improved kit deal also offered a boost. European football this season means that there is hope for them to maintain or improve their position, yet their poor league standing certainly jeopardises this.
