Real Madrid: total revenue 1999-2022

In the 2021/2022 season, the operating revenue of Real Madrid Football Club grew by 10.6 percent over the previous period, reaching more than 720 million euros. However, the Spanish club’s revenue was even higher than that figure in the season before the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Real Madrid is one of the most prestigious soccer clubs worldwide.

What is the main source of revenue for the club?

The revenue generated by Real Madrid through commercial activities like sponsorship and merchandising surged by more than 100 percent since the past decade, becoming the main source of revenue for the club. The German sport brand Adidas (since 1998) and UAE’s air carrier Emirates (since 2013) are Real Madrid’s main sponsors. The soccer jersey sponsorship deal between the Spanish club and Emirates was the world’s most valuable for the 2022/2023 season.

La Liga

Spain's top-tier soccer division is part of the ‘Big Five’ group —the highest European leagues in this sport. In 2022, the total value of soccer clubs in Spain was the second largest in Europe, right after the British league’s clubs. Real Madrid is the top all-time winner of La Liga, with nine more titles than FC Barcelona.
