Wolves post £15.3m loss, annualised profit shown in extended 2024/25 accounts | OneFootball

Wolves reported a £15.3 million loss for 2024/25, although the 13-month period annualises to a £1.5 million profit. According to ExpressAndStar.com, it is a fourth straight year of losses.

The last profit was £18.4 million in 2020/21, followed by deficits of £46.1 million, £67.2 million and £14.3 million before this latest result.

The accounting period was extended to 30 June to align with Premier League rivals and contract cycles. It also allowed last summer’s sales of Matheus Cunha to Manchester United for £62.5 million and Rayan Ait-Nouri to Manchester City for a fee rising to £36 million.

Player trading generated a £117 million profit, up from £64.6 million a year earlier. New signings and contracts, plus Gary O’Neil’s exit and Vitor Pereira’s arrival, pushed amortisation and impairment to £87.8 million from £67.2 million.

January business under Pereira included Emmanuel Agbadou at £16.6 million and Marshall Munetsi at £15 million, leaving a net player trading profit of £29.2 million against a £2.6 million loss in 2023/24.

Wolves did not replace Max Kilman after a £40 million move to West Ham. Pedro Neto’s sale to Chelsea for a fee rising to £54 million and a low-impact loan for Carlos Forbs have contributed to likely relegation in 2026.

Revenue slipped to £172 million from £177.7 million as the team fell from 14th to 16th and had one fewer UK TV broadcast, 15 rather than 16. Commercial partnerships rose by more than £1 million, while average attendance dipped from 31,265 to 30,881.
