Real Madrid targets €1.4bn despite losing its titles

In the corridors of the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, Real Madrid's executives note that the club has been going through a more difficult sporting period for two seasons, having handed the national crown to FC Barcelona and the European throne to Paris Saint‑Germain despite the arrival of Kylian Mbappé.

The institution, chaired by Florentino Pérez, remains untouchable on the economic front.

Historic revenue record

According to the daily AS, the Casa Blanca is set to smash its revenue record of €1.221 billion from last year by targeting a turnover of €1.4 billion for the current fiscal year, with a projected net profit of €14.2 million that will be put to a vote by the socios next weekend.

This audacious financial health is primarily based on the spectacular profitability of its facilities.

The colossal renovation of the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, which cost €1.4 billion, already generates roughly €420 million per year.

Madrid's training centre, La Fabrica, is expected to bring in no less than €154.8 million thanks to the transfers of young players from its academy.

Real Madrid keeps its wage bill at a controlled ratio of 46 % of the total budget.

The contract extensions signed last summer with adidas (€120 million per year until 2034) and Emirates (€100 million per year until 2031) guarantee €220 million annually, a windfall bolstered by the arrival of new partners such as Uber Eats and Hotels.com.
