Starting off the list is Fulham in 10th place.
As of 2024, Fulham FC is estimated to be worth $790 million, generating an annual revenue of $221 million.
The Cottages drifted between the second and fourth tiers until being taken over by Mohamed Al-Fayed in 1997.
Fulham went on to win two divisional titles in three seasons to reach the Premier League by 2001. They won the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 2002 and were beaten in the 2010 final of the UEFA Europa League.
However, after 13 consecutive seasons in the top-flight, they were relegated in 2014. Since that time, the club have moved between the first and second tiers under their new billionaire owner Shahid Khan.
Fulham had changed divisions in five successive seasons between 2017–18 to 2021–22, being relegated after winning the 2018 and 2020 EFL Championship play-off finals.
They then won the 2021–22 EFL Championship title, finally settling in the Premier League, where they have played since 2022.
9. Newcastle United (Valuation) - $795 million
Newcastle United have recently become affluent thanks to the 2021 purchase for a reported £305 million by a consortium including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, RB Sports & Media and PCP Capital Partners although the Saudi Arabians are undoubtedly the faces of the operation.

As of 2024, Newcastle United is one of the richest clubs in the world, currently valued at $795 million, generating an annual revenue of $303 million.
The new ownership has seen their valuation move up to seventh on the list of richest clubs in England and one can only expect that to increase especially with how well they have been doing so far.
The club is based in Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear and play their home games at the iconic St James’ Park Stadium which has a 52,305 capacity and was first opened in 1892.
![Aleksandar Isak is Newcastle's record signing](https://sportal365images.com/process/smp-images-production/ringier.africa/25042023/d21f5523-045e-4ed4-876f-d8b327b7cff2.jpeg?operations=fit(480:))
The Magpies made €212.3 million in revenue last year which was the 20th-highest of any team in the world and the 11th among English clubs.
The £63 million spent to sign Swedish striker Alexander Isak from Real Sociedad last summer is Newcastle’s record-signing so far but that is likely to change soon as Eddie Howe’s team are on course to qualify for the Champions League for the first time since the 2002/03 season.
8. Aston Villa (Valuation) - $800 million
![Aston Villa is one of the richest football clubs in England](https://sportal365images.com/process/smp-images-production/ringier.africa/23082024/8a5d1235-4ff5-45b8-9b02-946359e93e12.jpg?operations=fit(480:))

The £50 million signing of Amadou Onana from Everton in July 2024 is the most amount of money they have spent on one player.
The club managed by Unai Emery currently sits seventh on the Premier League table and are in contention to finish in European places which means they could have a new record signing in the summer.
7. West Ham United (Valuation) - $1.1 billion

![Chelsea are one of the richest clubs in England](https://sportal365images.com/process/smp-images-production/ringier.africa/23082024/9a3e83e4-9356-4f7c-bb25-b49c58f91174.jpg?operations=fit(480:))
Chelsea made €568.3 million in revenue last year, the eighth-highest in the world and the fourth amongst English clubs.
This is particularly surprising because Chelsea spent a large portion of 2022 embroiled in uncertainty caused by former owner Roman Abramovich’s involvement in the Russia-Ukraine tensions which eventually led to the sale of the club.
The club is owned by Blues Partners Limited, a consortium led by American businessman Todd Boehly who is the chairperson of the club.

Spurs made a whopping €523 million in total revenue for 2022 and are valued highly due to their status as one of the traditional big six of English football.
The club is owned by ENIC International Ltd, an investment company established by the British billionaire Joe Lewis who bought majority shares at the club in 2001.
Lewis’ partner at ENIC, Daniel Levy has been the executive chairman of the club ever since and is the public face of the club’s ownership.

Al Mubarak functions as the club chairman and has overseen Manchester City’s long stretch of success on and off the pitch over the last decade.
Deloitte Football Money League reports that Manchester City made €731 million in revenue last year, the most of any club in the world.
The club was originally founded in 1880 as St. Mark's (West Gorton) and then became Ardwick Association Football Club in 1887 and it was not until 1894 when they became known as Manchester City.
The Cityzens really began to enjoy success in August 2008 when they were purchased by the Abu Dhabi United Group. Their strategy was to sign the best available big-name players.
Their current record signing is Jack Grealish for whom they paid £100 million to sign from Aston Villa in the summer of 2021.
![Jack Grealish is Manchester City's record signing](https://sportal365images.com/process/smp-images-production/ringier.africa/31122022/c59bffa0-9045-401b-bc24-3e69d7c499a7.jpg?operations=fit(480:))

1. Manchester United (Valuation) - $6.55 billion
![Manchester United is the no.1 richest football club in England](https://sportal365images.com/process/smp-images-production/ringier.africa/23082024/1ada9ced-5ef0-49d1-94c3-5009c450cafe.jpg?operations=fit(480:))
