Commonly, in the world of sports, rankings of the teams that bill the most for each sport are released.However, this time the Statista portal released a general comparison that covers all disciplines, from hockey to soccer, to compare them in terms of profitability.
If you thought about it, the first on the list of the most profitable teams in the world with a cut to 2022, is not a football team. The ranking is led by the Dallas Cowboys, an American football player who plays in the NFL.
The Dallas were the most profitable sports team in the world for the past three years, generating operating income of more than US$1.17 billion, according to Statista. This registered a number almost double over the New England Patriots, who ranked second on the list. Furthermore, he was the only one to record figures in billions.
However, this occurs despite the fact that The Dallas have a wide gap of championships without winning over the past quarter centuryso the reason for this would be behind its owner, Jerry Jones, more skilled at handling the chips in the field of business than in sports.
Second on the list, as mentioned, was another from American football, the New England Patriots, with US$623 million profit margin.
The Patriots also featured despite a relative lack of success in the new decade. (No playoff wins since Tom Brady’s departure after the 2019 season.) But the truth is that they have six appearances scheduled on national television, which includes an international game in Frankfurt against the Indianapolis Colts.
In explaining their good numbers, Dallas and New England would be the leaders among the 13 NFL teams that dominate the list. thanks in part to massive television deals with CBS, ESPN, Fox and NBC.
With Tottenham Hotspur third among the most profitable in the world, the first soccer team appears, with a figure of US$414 million.
This club from England, according to Statista, was the best placed soccer team in the Premier League list. Hotspurs reported operating income of $623 million in the last three years.
With US$404 million, the New York Knicks is positioned fourth and as the first team in basketball. However, like those of American football, critics wonder Why are the Knicks one of the most valuable franchises in the NBA if they haven’t been good recently?
The answer to this question is in the complex where they play, Madison Square Garden, which It’s still a very profitable place, with a $1 billion renovation to its structure. Rental prices for his suites for MSG can be as much as $1 million a year, if not more. In general, the team wins because of its headquarters.
Up to fifth place appears the first big Champions League, Manchester United. This club has a profitability of US$403 million. Their appearance in the ranking is due to the success of the team on the field, the global fan base and the strong commercial partnerships they manage that have made it one of the most valued in the world. Its value has increased to $4.6 billion since a valuation of $3.2 billion in 2021.
The other sports teams among the most profitable are the American football team, Houston Texans ($356 million); those for basketball, the Golden State Warriors (US$348 million) and the Los Angeles Lakers (US$333 million); and another for American football, the New York Giants (also with US$333 million).
On the soccer side, Manchester City appears (US$329 million)who completed a sensational season yesterday by beating Inter on Saturday Milan 1-0 and win the Champions League for the first time in its history.
