Title: Soccer is numero uno
Post by: BDsauce on July 16, 2013, 09:03:17 AM
[Real Madrid] is now the world’s most valuable sports franchise, worth $3.3 billion, surpassing former No. 1 Manchester United. Los Blancos have the highest revenues of any team in sports ($650 million during the 2011-12 season), and revenues are up 62% over the last three years. Madrid’s operating income (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and player trading) of $134 million is second only to the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys among sports teams.

The revenue spigot isn’t shutting off anytime soon. The club extended its kit supply deal with Adidas last year in a pact worth $42 million a year. Madrid inked its largest sponsorship deal ever this spring with Emirates. The deal to put the Dubai-based airline’s name on the team’s shirts is worth $39 million annually for five years starting next season. Madrid is planning a $320 million renovation to its stadium, Santiago Bernabeu, which could add $60 million a year to revenues by 2018.

Wonder how your team stacks up? Here’s the full top 10, but you can see the top 50 on Forbes.com:

1. Real Madrid, $3.3 billion

2. Manchester United, $3.165 billion

3. Barcelona, $2.6 billion

4. New York Yankees, $2.3 billion

5. Dallas Cowboys, $2.1 billion

6. New England Patriots, $1.635 billion

7. Los Angeles Dodgers, $1.615 billion
