Barcelona have recorded a net loss of €17million (£14.7m/$19.8m) for the 2024-25 season, despite bringing in a huge €994m (£862m/$1.16billion) in revenue across the campaign. The mouth-watering figures signal a slight downturn from 2023-24, where both Barca's income and expenditure were under €900m and they recorded a marginal net profit of €5m (£4.3m/$5.8m) overall.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has downplayed the impact of a proposed salary cap rule in the Premier League, saying England's top tier will "always be a strong league". The 20 clubs will vote on the new regulations next month. It is believed that City and their local rivals Manchester United are opposed to the idea, and are expected to go against the proposal.
Manchester United COO Collette Roche has outlined the profound impact which building a new stadium at Old Trafford would have not only on the football club but on the prosperity of the surrounding area and beyond. A 100,000-seater plan has been touted to replace the ageing Red Devils stadium, which would make it the biggest stadium in Europe, though slightly below Barcelona's expected 105,000-seater redeveloped Nou Camp.
Barcelona have officially renewed their partnership with Spotify, extending their sponsorship through 2030 and maintaining the naming rights of Camp Nou until 2034. The deal comes just months before the stadium’s grand reopening, marking a new chapter in Barca’s long-term strategy to unite football, music and global audiences.
Juventus are under investigation once again after UEFA opened proceedings into alleged financial irregularities between 2022 and 2025. The probe, which could lead to new fines or squad registration limits, adds to growing concerns over the club’s financial stability just a year after their European ban.
Barcelona still owe a staggering €159 million (£138m/$184m) to several clubs for past transfers, including deals for Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres. Despite generating nearly €1bn (£870m/$1.16bn) in revenue, Barca’s mounting short-term debts and delayed transfer payments reveal that the club is still struggling to regain its financial footing after years of reckless spending.
It has been nearly seven months since Manchester United revealed their plans to build an ambitious new 100,000-seater stadium on the same site as Old Trafford with a glitzy video presented by world-famous architect Norman Foster. "Today marks the start of an incredibly exciting journey to the delivery of what will be the world’s greatest football stadium," said an excited Sir Jim Ratcliffe in March.
Wrexham's Hollywood owners have been warned that their valuation of the club may be significantly lower than they estimate. A-listers Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac value the club at $472m (£350m) but it could in fact be far lower according to a football finance expert. Reynolds and Mac have invested heavily in a team that has scaled the football pyramid since their 2021 purchase.
Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group are reportedly inching closer to ending their search to own a second football club. FSG have been at the reins for the Anfield outfit since 2010 and after a slow start, they have overseen a hugely successful period in recent years. But their ambition, it appears, does not stop at Liverpool as they have a Spanish team in their sights.
