Sporting in world top 8 for money made from sales; see the list | OneFootball

Sporting closed the summer transfer window with heavyweight figures on a global scale. The Lions brought in €200.85 million in sales, a figure that places the club in 7th position among the teams that made the most money from sales during the most recent window.

A large part of Sporting’s revenue came from the departures of Morten Hjulmand and Ousmane Diomande, both sold for €40 million, and Francisco Trincão, who brought in €39.35 million. These deals were joined by Geovany Quenda, in a €50 million transfer announced earlier but only completed in the current financial year, according to Transfermarkt.

Despite investing €123.28 million in signing players, Sporting ended the window with a positive balance of €77.57 million. This result gave the Lions the sixth-highest profit in the world among clubs last summer, demonstrating the Alvalade club’s ability to generate revenue without compromising investment in the squad.

At the top of the list for highest revenue is Chelsea, with €447.8 million raised in sales, followed by Aston Villa with €365.3 million, and Manchester City with €337 million, followed by PSG (€334.3M), Newcastle (€279.1M) and West Ham (€217.1M). Sporting comes next.

As for profit, French side Paris Saint-Germain led the way with €182 million, ahead of West Ham with €171 million, Lille with €120 million, Leipzig (€108M) and Strasbourg (€101M). The Lions appear in sixth place (€78M).
