What have we learned so far?
Well, for one thing, there is a tremendous amount of money involved in Premier League football. This project analyzes data from only two teams in the Premier League; Liverpool FC and Manchester City FC. From the 2007-2008 season until the end of the 2017-2018 season, these two teams accounted for £5.7 Billion in declared revenues. At today’s exchange rate, that equates to $7.3 Billion US.
What we can also learned is the significant rate of increase for annual revenues. The plot below shows the revenue for each club on a yearly basis.
On the transfer front, Liverpool FC have spent almost a £1 Billion acquiring players through the transfer market, while Manchester City have spent just under £1.4 Billion.
