The 20 clubs in Europe’s top 5 leagues to earn most from 18-19 TV revenue

Only two teams from outside of the Premier League feature in the 20 clubs from Europe’s top five leagues to make the most money from TV revenue in 2018-19.

Research from the always excellent Swiss Ramble has highlighted the might of the Premier League’s TV deal, with Barcelona and Real Madrid the only clubs from outside England’s top flight to break into the top 20.

The headline news comes from the fact Wolves, in their first season back in the Premier League, earned more from TV revenue than Real Madrid, while Everton made just £1million less than Barcelona.

3. Chelsea – £146million
